New Computer/Screen Size Small Square

hunter301 · 06-23-19, 07:38 PM

Guys;
Just reloaded SH4 from Amazon on new computer.
Everything is set up however every time I try to play it with no matter what resolution setting I can't get it to go widescreen for my laptop screen or the 39" 1080p 39" tv I'm hooked up to.
Used to play it with my old laptop no problem.
Was windows 7 however.
This one is windows 10 but I don't have any problem running the game I just can't get the screen resolution to fit the tv or laptop.

It is possible that SH4 just will not handle the resolution of your 39" screen. What GPU are you running on your computer?

Just tried it again on the old screen and it works fine but on my new 1080p I can't get the resolution to go to the edge of the screen.
Must have something to do with the age of the game on a 1080p.

Ooops! Missed this one... I replied to you in the other thread hunter301. You just have to have Windows and SH4 both match what your monitor does...
