    Just got it today. Need help on removing the vertical black bars while playing older games. I tried changing the res below 1920 x 1080 then my whole desktop have black bars. What should I do to fix?

    What games? You tried updating the drivers or vbios?

    Tried playing cs for now. So when I try playing under normal I get the black bars but when I change it to widescreen I don't get the black bars but I can't change the resolution to 800 x 600. I downloaded the latest driver for nvidia but I get an error saying its not compatible.
