Widescreen EU2

[Jon Shafer]

Hello everyone.

I have a widescreen laptop and was wondering if there was anything I could do to make the game look better. I've upscaled the resolution to 1280x1024. I have read there is no way to get widescreen, nor to run in windowed mode, however. Unfortunately, everything is stretched right now, as I'm sure many of you have experienced.

So, my question...

I was able to change a setting on my desktop machine with an ATi video card to keep the 4:3 aspect ratio (and play with black bars on the sides). I have an nVidia GeForce 7800 Go with my laptop and have been unable to find a similar option. Does anyone know of a way to get the same sort of thing with a recent nVidia card? I tried to find some help with this but since the Search function is on vacation and Google wasn't much help I thought I'd ask directly.

I have a Dell Inspiron 9400.

How do those programs actually change the resolution? Is the interface moved and the playable area increased/decreased as you would expect with most games? (And how it's worked thus far increasing the resolution to 1280x1024 in what's already supported.)

I can't find reference to GResChanger anywhere (one of the very few hits with a Google search actually gives me that page you linked me to, but still no way to find the program ), and using the Pegasus Hexa Wizard I tried to create a windowed version of 1.09 but it seems to have had no effect.
