[quote]What is your graphics card?

ATI/AMD and Nvidia graphics cards have an option in their control options for this.
In the Nvidia control panel there is an option under Display that says Change flat panel scaling. Change that to use nvidia scaling with fixed aspect ratio.
For most people it works, for others (like myself) it doesn't.

If you have an ATI solution, there is some similar option in their CCC or whatever it is called now days. If you have other graphics card, I have no idea.

BUT, make sure you have connected the monitor to your graphics card with a DVI and not a VGA or else the chances are against you.

I am using xfx 6600 gt graphics card.

Also there there isn't any 'change flat panel scaling' under display option.

Make sure you are looking in the NVIDIA control panel, NOT Windows control panel.

You don't have this?

madman1987: Remember that you need a DVI connection to get that option in Nvidia panel.. I didn't see whether or not you are using one.
They can be foudn quite cheap at websites. Hell, I have 3 i never use.. i'll GIVE you one if you need.

BlueMak: i thought i was the only one with such a heavily populated quicklaunch bar :)

Wonderful card. I used one for ~2 years...still got it in a secondary gamer/HTPC system in the bedroom.

Now you've got me really curious, though. Which game(s) are you running?
