I recently acquired a new monitor (it's pretty nice, 1680x1050) but when I play StarCraft, it stretches to the full width. Anyone know of a way to fix this? :/ My graphics card is an ATI radeon 9200. I've got the Catalyst control center.

Use your monitors buttons to make it a normal screen size.



None.

Try changing the refresh rate and resolution.
If that doesn't work, try changing resolution within Starcraft, or, use an Auto-Adjust function (if your monitor has it).



None.

There should be an AUTO-ADJUST button on most new monitors.

God dam you viet, you don't get to just say "case closed!" whenever you reply to a post in a thread.

In my catalyst control center, you go in advanced >> Panel Proporties - and select preserve aspect ratio

This option doesn't seem to exist.

That option is only on laptop computers, as far as I know. Possibly also if you use the DVI or HDMI connection, but I'm unsure on that, as I've never had a monitor with either.

NimoStar -- If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface
[05:34 pm]
NimoStar -- Well. The bot didn't come up with any new strategy. It just has superhuman micro. Hard to beat that. I reckon even the simplest dedicated chess engines are unbeatable for humans now.

Oh_Man shouted: NudeRaider did u watch the entire video? it's not one game. it's currently dominating the ladder at number 1 position. do ur research first!
Oops, caught me there, no I haven't. :( I was imagining how the game went. Sorry for that. Watching it now. brb

NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man that's certainly a way more convincing argument for micro being "too good to beat".
