Change your scaling options in your ATI CCC to your prefered method.

No Stretch
Aspect Stretch
Stretch to fit

Goes by different names in the CCC though. I always use Aspect because I do want to use my full screen but not actually distort the image in any way.

 

cant see anything in ccc..say aspect stretch or anything like that ...thx for the reply

 

try updating ati drivers to 10.10 from Global Provider of Innovative Graphics, Processors and Media Solutions | AMD

 

MY game will crash if i update to 10.10..ccc...hence why went back to 10.4..not updated vbios yet as dont want to risk , a brick ..not unless vbios is all ok to update..thx for the reply

 

Did you upgrade your vBIOS?

 

vBios upgrade was so far stable for all, you can savely do it.
And it's really needed.

 

OPEn CCC desktops and displays- click the triangle and then configure. As long as you are not using native resolution you ail see the Scaling settings mentioned by ViciousXUSMC.

 

yea you need to go to a resolution like 1440x900, then click ok to accept, then go to the display settings, on the laptop panel bit, there will be an option for scaling available.

It's been fixed on the newer drivers, but if you wish to stick to older ones, this will allow it to work.

 

would like to say thank you all ..as it has worked will update vbios when home ..
