what's the native resolution? if you're using anything else squishalarity may ensue, especially if you change from the native aspect ratio too.

YOu sure your native res isn't 1280x768. Majority of widescreen lcd are 16:10 instead of 16:9

my native res is 1028x768 i want it to be in widescreen. ITs widescreen better for gaming"?

You can't run an LCD at higher than its native resolution, the pixels just don't exist.

You can run it lower, for example 800x600, then it is still really 1024x768 but the card or monitor fills in the extra pixels with in-between colors.

If your native resolution is 1028x768, guess what? You DO NOT have a wide screen LCD! :shocked:

I know I'm going to kick myself for even trying to help you, but Look Here for more info. on screen resolution.
Then go play with your Barbies! :laugh:
