Widescreen LCD play does not support widescreen display of the game, is often the original 4:3 or 5:4 resolution "hard" pull to 16:10, resulting in the game picture distortion or even serious distortion. In addition, even if the game provides a 16:10 resolution of the 1280x768, the picture is poor in full screen operation on a 20-inch or larger widescreen LCD. At this point, you can consider using "window mode" to reduce the game resolution to solve this problem.
For games that do not support the 16:10 widescreen display, you can use window mode to display the screen at 4:3 or 5:4 resolution. The way to do this is to set the display mode of the game to "windowed mode" and then the game resolution to 1024x768 (for a 19-inch widescreen LCD) or 1280x1024 (for a widescreen LCD with a size of 20 inches or larger). After this setting, the game screen looks normal.
If the game itself supports 1280x768 resolution, then 19-inch widescreen LCD users can play the game in Full-screen mode. However, 20-inch (or larger) widescreen LCD users are best to use "window mode", the resolution is still set to 1280x768, at this time the game screen quality is significantly better than Full-screen mode. Many network game players like to use this window mode to play the game, not only see clearly, but also can play, while chatting.
modifying Dafa by hand
Games that do not support widescreen display can also be run on widescreen LCD. There are two ways to do this: To modify the registry, or to modify the game's configuration file, both to force the game to the desired display resolution.
1. Modify the Registration Form
This method must first find the relevant subkeys of the path where the game is located in the registry, and then edit the changes. Take "Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne" For example, in the registry "Hkey_current_usersoftwareblizzard Entertainmentwarcraftⅲvideo" path, find "Reswidth" and "resheight "Two subkeys that represent the horizontal resolution of the game display, which refers to the vertical resolution. If you are using a 19-inch widescreen LCD, change their decimal values to 1440 and 900, and then change them to 22 and 1680, respectively, if they are 20-inch or 1050-inch widescreen LCD.
2. Modify the configuration file
The key to this approach is to find the game's configuration file and determine the configuration item for the resolution in the file. In the case of The Lord of the Rings: 2, for example, if the player's Windows XP login account is WJ and the system is installed on C, then the c:documents and Settingswjapplication Datamy Battle for Middle-earth ( TM) II files directory to find the file named "Options.ini". Edit the file in Notepad to find the "resolution" item whose default value is generally "Resolution = 1024 768", as long as it is changed to "Resolution = 1440 900" or "Resolution = 1680 1050". Will allow the game to support widescreen mode.
Install game patch

3. Plug-type Special patch
If you can't find the first two patches, you can consider the use of plug-in special patches, this kind of patch is similar to the game plug, every time before entering the game must first run the patch, set the corresponding resolution to enter the game, the game screen will be displayed in widescreen mode.
