    Hello all,
    I recently bought a FSC Amilo Pi1536. I'm satisfied with it but I have a problem with the way it handles display resolutions below 1280X800. It simply shrinks the picture in the center of the screen and the other part remains black. Recently i tried playing Sarcraft on it an it was a disaster. It was something like looking at a post card :). I think there should be some way to fix this but I just can't find it. I already had so much problems with my FSC dealer and I just don't think it worth trying to contact his helpdesk.
    I hope there is someone who can help me. Thank you in advance.

    P.S. My English is a bit rusty but I thin you will get the point :).

    Welcome to NBR, vapel. :)

    Havr you tied using a different game with notebook, and seeing if you get the same results. Also, when in Windows, can you change the resolution from there, and does that do the same thing. I would suggest to reinstall the graphics card drivers, just to make sure they aren't the problem. Remeber, uninstall the old ones, then restart, install the new ones, and restart again. Hope this helps.

    Thank you Zero. It turned out that this problem exists only with Display drivers downloaded from the official site of FSC. There is no problem with the drivers avaliable at ati.com(catalyst 7.2 I think).
