    i find this from google for nvidia but works with ati also :)

    1) Change your monitor resolution to 800x600 or any res below the native one (right click and screen resolution)
    2) Open up Ati Control Panel
    3) Highlight "Attributes under notebook panel properties"
    4) select "Full Screen" or "Preserve Aspect Ratio"
    5) Click on the "Ok" button
    6) Change your desktop back to the original resolution
    8) Enjoy Non-Stretched or streched and without black bordered Games ;)
