Hi there,
So I've got this problem for a week now, and can't find a way to fix it.
The games run perfectly in windowed mode, but when I switch to full screen, the game window looks like a 640*480 with huge black frames filling the rest of the screen (my monitor has a 1600*900 native resolution).
I suspect the problem first occurred after I tried to lower the resolution to 800*600. Now it affects pretty much all of my games (in addition to Touhou), except the most recent ones.
Things I've tried so far (some were probably useless) :
- updating my drivers.
- reinstalling my drivers, doing clean installs, with an older version and the most up-to-date (for the GPU).
- running the games in Windows 98 and XP compatibility modes.
- running the games with "-windowed" and "-fullscreen" in command line.
- forcing the games to run using the nVidia GPU (didn't change anything) or the integrated graphics (crashed the game and everything else).
The strangest part is that whenever I try to change the screen resolution (outside of the games), it also fills the remaining space with black frames.
I tried to toy with my graphics card parameters, but the nVidia control panel is empty except for a few useless 3d options.
Running Windows 8 (yeah :< ) with decent ram/gpu/whatever, Japanese locale, and never had this problem before.
Any help would be welcome, thanks in advance !
