![[image loading]](http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/127/nvidiacontrolpanel.png) Seriously? Any of you guys using widescreen monitors with HDMI, can you play BW fullscreen without any problems at all (half of the HUD doesnt appear to me)? My specs: GeForce 8200 Monitor Samsung 20" LCD TV Monitor 10000:0 Aspect Ratio 16: 9 Edit: I forgot to let the VGA part off the title  | ||

Btw 16: 9 is not a resolution, it's an aspect ratio. | ||

Something about when going to non native resolutions, that you want black bars instead of it stretching over your entire display. Btw 16: 9 is not a resolution, it's an aspect ratio. Ok, edited to aspect ratio  Yeah, thats what I've been trying to do, but as you see in the picture, nVidia control panel doesnt let me do because my 'current signal', which is HDMI. | ||

Look here: Nvidia Control Panel > Adjust desktop size and resolution Personally, it never worked on my notebook with a GeForce 7800Go, so good luck there. Oh, doesn't your monitor has a 4:3 mode? I have a LG monitor and use it all the time. | ||

I found the solution in this link: http://ntsc-uk.domino.org/showthread.php?t=99054 Apparently renaming this input 'PC' or 'DVI PC' disables all the post processing and puts it into some kind of PC mode. Maybe that willl help. Seems like if you are using HDMI cable in your samsung monitor, you have to go to the monitor menu (OSD) and rename the Input HDMI to PC or DVI PC. I did rename it to DVI PC and got this working just fine. Ingame you can change the aspect ratio to 4:3 using the OSD so you get the black bars, or you can leave it 16: 9 so the screen stretches. gg!!! | ||
