SH4 on 22" screen

Sorry for the stupid question, but have you checked you are running in "full screen" mode? :hmm: Is it possible that you are seeing the game in a window, and not in full screen?

Also, go to "My Documents/SH4/data/cfg" and open the file Main.cfg with notepad, word or wordpad. You should see this:

[SETTINGS]

I have highlighted in RED the line you must check. Yes you can also do it in the game menu, but to be sure do it here. You should be able to change the line to FullScreen=Yes in case it is currently at "FullScreen=No" and save the changes. If you can't, right click on the file and check it is not labelled as "Read only" file.

Hope that helps

I just upgraded to a 24" widescreen myself and get a FULL picture OK.
I use the GF 7600GT with 256 DDR3. The pic is great and I have not even tried
the DVI setup yet....
