I've never ran the game outside 1024x768, but this is the exact reason I won't change to an LCD screen as they seldom come in a 4:3 ratio size, unless you get a large one that does 1600x1200, but my PC can't cope with that resolution in anything but really old games, and I'd rather not have everything blurry!
I would guess the only solution is to run the game in a window of 1024x768 or of the same aspect ratio. If the laptop screen is 1280x800 then there's not really much of an option to increase it (only 32 pixels extra vertically, and the title-bar of the window will account for most of that). You will just have to live with not using all of your screen.
It's a problem of any game with views mostly based around textures rather than full 3D. For SH3 this is the map screen, periscope views etc.
