Percopius -> Solution to Fuzzy Screens on LCDs for any game (8/8/2008 8:33:44 PM)

Hi,

This applies to ALL GAMES when runing a non-native resolution.

I am useing Nvida cards, but this should apply to any card.

1. Open your vedio card control panel.
2. Click on Change Flat Panel Scaling.
3. Check the 'Do Not Scale' radio button.
4. Click on 'Apply' then 'OK'.
5. Your desktop will not fill the whole screen. don't freak out.
6. Run your game.
7. The graphic will fill up most of the screen except for the amount of 'leftover' lines of resolution.
8. marvel at the nearly full screen PERFECTLY SHARP GRAPHICS!!!!!

I do this all the time, it works great. If you have a comment or it does not work for your setup, comment on it.

I should mention that this applies to when you want to run in fullscreen mode in a game that your LCD native resolution forces scaling.

Also, this works best for 1024x768, and you may get a really small display area depending on your LCD native resoltuion. I am useing a 30'' inch Apple display, and 1024x768 almost fills the whole screen.

Thank you, this had been driving me nuts.

You should also consult your monitors settings. Usually you can tell your monitor what to do in such cases either.

I just got the latest Nvidia drivers, and I don't even see an option to "change flat panel scaling" anywhere. Where is this setting, please?

Have a look at http://www.tweakguides.com/NVFORCE_1.html - pages 6 and 7 shows the setting.

My LCD is set up at 1680x1050 and I just run the game full panel. Yes, the aspect/ratio is slightly distorted, but I rather have that than two ugly black bars on each side.

Ahh I see. This is only pertinent to DVI or HDMI connections. That's why I don't see the option. I gotta upgrade my old, dusty monitor.

What would be the solution for ATI cards to achieve this?

I can't find anything with a similar name under the Catalyst Control Center. Quite a few options under advanced options tho I can't see anything remotely similar. Would be nice to sharpen the details up some.

Any one?
