    Hi,
    I have xga+ screen with 9300... Assuming max size is 1440x900, which is what I have my display set at.

    When watching a movie (powerdvd) or equivalent, I see the movie in full screen surrounded by a black border all around. The movie is one of the high def trailers available for d/l, which is a good demo of the system capabilities. I'm wondering why it doesn't encompass the entire screen in full screen mode, and how I could resolve that.

    Thanks...

    it may be in the options for Power DVD, I dont have mine in front of me but when the movie is playing try right clicking on it and see what options you get.

    ? is the movie wide screen or not

    HI,
    Anyone have an opinion on this? Is it something as simple as adjusting the display itself on laptop. I can play with it, just curious...

    Thanks
