Status: offline 		My new widescreen monitor has just landed, ironically a few hours before im due to get married .

can some please tell me the settings in the shortcut to have a widescreen windowed game? Ive tried the setting in the whats new file but the py of 1050 sees some the screen off the desktop. Im running the monitor at 1920 by 1080 resolution.

thanks

Many of the new wide screen monitors come set to TV mode by default as they function in that role as well. If you switch it to PC mode the dimensions you specify should provide an exact fit. If you don't have a manual you can usually find how to switch it on-line.

In the meanwhile, don't forget your wedding.

What concentration! What dedication!

What a waste of prime drinking time . . .

Today is, in fact, my 29th wedding anniversary.  I got married out of boot camp and am still going strong.  Two boomerang kids, 2 dogs, 8 cats and a house with no mortgage.

Congrats on your day! One more year and you get the T-shirt. Or, she gets the T-shirt. Whichever.

BTW, the cat total is stunning. I've always thought that cats are geometric. Two cats are like four cats. Three cats are like nine cats.

You have 64 cats, dude.
