FWIW, in my experience this is only the case if you have some option for maintaining aspect ratio (turning off auto-scaling) in your gfx card software or with your monitor settings.

In the current version of my gfx card software it will only enable the "maintain aspect ratio" option when my desktop resolution is different from the monitor's preferred res - so I had to use a small display utility program to force a desktop res change while the SH3.exe is running.

Otherwise no matter how I set up the Res Fix config, I get whatever resolution I choose running full screen on the monitor, stretched out if necessary to fill a widescreen ratio. This was the case in my previous installation on XP as well, altho I was able to select "maintain aspect ratio" regardless of what my desktop res was at any moment. But I've never been able to make the Res Fix run the game fullscreen in any resolution with stretching on a WS monitor without some added tweaking of my gfx options.
