I just installed this game on my new gaming computer and I can report that it does support 16:10 aspect ratio. The "solution" given under the widescreen game list here says that this isn't true and suggests a sort of workaround. I am not attempting to work out solutions for other resolutions but it works fine on my 24" display at the native 1920 x 1200 resolution.

The configurator that comes with the game allows these settings and also performs tests to ensure that they work and are compatible with the hardware.

During my initial test of the game I couldn't see any evidence of stretching or clipping of the video image, although I suppose I would have to compare it with an alternative setup at 16:9 to be sure.

I am running the retail game with the latest Version 1.1 patch, although I doubt that has anything to do with this issue.

You're right, the solution is incomplete and outdated. If I remember correctly the game's config tool lets you choose your aspect ratio for the menus to look right and the game does not stretch if configured properly. It even supports TripleHead except the menu items go offscreen.

Can you post a 4:3-to-16:10 screenshot comparison ?
