Gaming Issue

[SDode]

All my games are running with black bars on the sides, which is very annoying.My video card is

mobile Intel 965 Express. The monitor can only stretch at 1280x800 resolution, but then the performance is horrible. So i want 800x600 resolution on full screen but those black bars always show up. I'm usig windows 7, please help.

Thanks for getting back to our community.

I understand you have some games that required 800*600 screen resolution.

If you are using a monitor that only supports 1280*800, then your games will use same screen resolution, then you may need to adjust resolution within game properties.

It may help if you update your video drivers to the latest version.

Please filter by operating system and try to install the driver when it finishes downloading, to verify that your system will accept it.

Also, check the list of supported games for your graphics controller here:
