I installed Windows 10 and did nothing else. SH3 runs just fine.

Were you on patrol at the time of the Windows 10 upgrade, or in between games? Does it make a difference?

Upgraded to Win 10 while on patrol with no problem.

Take a look after completing the upgrade if your graphics card shows up ok in the hardware list. If not a restart will fix that. It happened to me with my Nvidia GTX 460. Oh , download and the latest drivers (for win10) as well.

No. I use a lot of mods (more than 60) but widescreen isn't among them.

And your getting full screen?

If I try a clean SH3 or GWX 3.0 I always get a black border around the game!

I have tried multiple widescreen mods, but most of them always push the game to the left of my screen, and then throw up graphic glitches when zooming in/out of maps.

I'm beginning to lose all hope.. The only screen mod that works is MAGUI, but i much prefer the basic SH3 dials and look.

I think so, yes. If not it doesn't matter because I've never noticed.

Of course it I do notice and it starts bothering me I'm going to blame you.
