Flawless Widescreen isn't working at all for me, and as far as I can tell it's a dll problem with FASM. I'm trying to use FW (x64 version) with Fallout 4 (thanks Bethesda for hardcoding so much stuff!), and once Fallout 4 starts up, FW appears to detect that, but almost immediately throws a "Could not open pipe to FASM" error in the status tab and I get a pair of error boxes from fasm_wrapper stating it can't find msvcr100.dll and msvcp100.dll, and subsequently does nothing for FO4. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Re-distributable Package (x64 version) multiple times, and checking for updates and installing those, and no changes to the errors. I've tried copy pasting the offending dlls into the FW directory, and while that changes the error message from fasm_wrapper ("The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)"), I still get the "Could not open pipe" error from FW itself. Running FW as administrator makes no difference. I'm running Windows 10 x64 (very fresh install on a new computer, only one week old) and a AMD R9 390 if that matters.


For backward compatibility reasons the FASM DLL is only 32bit - thus it get's called via a intermediary 32bit bridge, a pipe is used to communicate between the 32bit and 64bit bridge.

Short story is:
You need both the 32bit and 64bit C++ redistributable installed.

Most people probably don't experience this problem because it's so common for these redistributables to already be installed by countless other applications.

I tested the Resident Evil 5's plugin and it still works perfectly. Interface still working.
The problem comes when you have cutscenes. The game crashes at those times.

Please HaYDeN, take a look at it.

The fix for Ori with multi-monitor isn't working for me. It seems to be displaying the picture from all three screens on the center monitor:

Hi guys,
I'm having some problems with "Flawless Widescreen". Can anyone help me?

I installed x64 version my my PC, since I have x64 Windows installed, but problem is it's icon doesn't work for this program, I tried to change it icon to the custom one, but still it doesn't have icon & there's another, bigger problem - despite the fact, that I check in settings "start with windows" & it's in my startup folder, still it doesn't start with Windows. I even checked "msconfig" to see it if's there & yes, it's there, but still it won't start. I have no idea why this software is so broken on my PC. Then I tried x86 version, but when I installed it, program told me, I have Windows x64 & it's recommended for me to upgrade to x64 version, & then again it got x64 with those problems again.

I'm also having issues with Wolfenstien: The Old Blood. Perhaps they updated it? New Order working fine for me as well.

Hi, new to the world of wide screen and multi monitor gaming, and after much headache with NV surround and one of my monitors being of reversed polarity i finally got it working, only to discover several games dont quite work *cough bethesda* I found the flawless widescreen utility and had much hope for it, however i am having some trouble getting it to work, likelly due to my non standard resolution and aspect ratio, or me just not knowing what im doing.

i am currently running 3x 16:10 dell monitors 16:10 @ 1680x1050 each, 5040x1050 or 5300x1050 bezel corrected through nv surround

the program appears to work fine, however the game starts and only shows up at normal resolution on one screen (left most) and the main menu is fubar
Spoiler:

Hi, I used this program to play Knights of The Old Republic in widescreen 1080p on only one monitor, I don't' know if it's the intended way to use this program, however it works very well.

Now I have a problem with Return to Castle Wolfenstein (when I select anything higher than 640x480 I see only the upper left corner of the frame zoomed-up to full screen). To me this is the best game in the series, better than the new ones, can you add it to the list?

Is anyone having trouble with Diablo III and FWS since the latest game patch came out a few days ago? No longer working for me.
