Hi, the new prerelease drivers for the intel x3100 in windows 7, drivers have a problem when changing screen resolution to 1280x800 to lower the image does not cover the whole screen.

I am also having the same problem with the latest windows 7 drivers that are installed automatically through the microsoft update. This problem was not present in the beta versions of windows 7. version 8.15.10.1620 did not have this problem. Even though these drivers are faster but this problem have limited the gameplay experience. Even with the latest 8.15.10.1730 dated 27-04-09 have the same problem. It seems as if this problem is there with laptops having wide screen with resolution 1280*800. Either you have full resolution of 1280*800 otherwise other resolutions 800*600,1024*768 etc all look the same. I Hope intel would soon improve this default.

The Drivers which come with Windows update does not provide OpenGL support ... So I request u to download the latest drivers from http://downloadcenter.intel.com ... the Latest version is 8.15.10.1825 .. This driver enables all the windows 7 features ... Hope this Helps to rectify your problem ...
