    Cannot play Counterstrike in Widescreen with W3V

    Just bought a W3V a few days ago, pretty happy with the machine so far.

    Concerning CS (not CS:Source), for some reason I cannot get widescreen mode to work. Under display mode, it is greyed out and is stuck on "normal" mode. The highest resolution I can get is 1024x768, which squishes the image on my widescreen display.

    I tried to look for settings to change in the display properties. But nothing will work?

    How can I change the mode to "widescreen" and play at a resolution of 1280x768?

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply.

    CS is a game that happens to support it. It is, for some reason, greyed out in the menu. Other people have been able to play it in widescreen :(
