Hi ghuk

Welcome to Seven Forums
Could you post your system specs please?

A quick search on the web shows many have issues with that video card with games and have updatted it with this driver Confirm Download

Lomai is correct in that you really should fill in your specs, makes it easier to help you with problems.

Hi Ghuk

Have you tried using ALT+Enter to go to fullscreen mode?
You could also have a look at this?

hi thanks for your reply guys..

here is my specs

Hp pavillion laptop dv6000
-1.6ghz dual core
-2gb ram
-gma x3100/gma 965 385 mb
-windows 7 ultimate

i tried to download the latest driver for win7 for gma x3100,,but still it's not in fullscreen.. i think the problem is the aspect ration, where in it only shows 4:3

Hi ghuk

Have you tried adjusting the aspect ratio:

Go to the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver properties (either through the system tray icon or through Display Properties, Settings, Advance, Graphics Properties) and go to display settings, aspect ratio options. Change it to full screen .
