  1. I can't change my desktop from 16:9 to 4:3.


    Hello. So i want to set my desktop from 16:9 to 4:3 but my display setting says its on intel graphics card. when i right click the desktop i only have the nvidia control panel. I have a laptop with Intel Core i5 and an gtx 1050 nvidia. I have both of them at the last version of them. I upgraded the intel version 2 times at the last version and still i have no Intel setting when i right-click the desktop. I also don't have the ''Desktop'' settings in nvidia. What should i do?

    :)

  2. How to prevent stretching Game's resolution in 4:3 to 16:9?

    I have a 16:9 monitor (1366x768) but when I try to change the resolution of Outlast to 4:3 (1024x576) it gets stretched to full display, kind of too wide.

    So, I would like to play it at 4:3 along with Black Bars on the sides. I used to know a method to do this using the windows registry editor, but now I seem to have forgotten it.

    Kindly help me out to remove the stretching of the game and to fit it in 4:3 on my 16:9 monitor.

    Thanks,

    .

    I have a monitor that needs to run 16:10 not 16:9 can this be done in Windows 10.

    Hi AlanWalsh3,

    Is this for a Laptop projecting on an External monitor or is this a desktop? If laptop, are you projecting as Duplicate, Extend or 2nd monitor only?

    16:9 is the new standard aspect ratio. You can barely see 16:10 (i.e. 1920x1200) nowadays that is why in Windows 10 Setting, most of the aspect ratios are for 4:3 and 16:9. If the 16:10 aspect ratios (280:800, 1440:900, 1680:1050, 1920:1200 or 2560:1600) are
    available from the list of Display resolution options, it means there is no way of setting it to 16:10.

    I can't change my desktop from 16:9 to 4:3.

    4:3 stretched to 16:9 on a 21:9 monitor.

    Is there any way to play a game on Fullscreen while not having the native resolution?

    My problem is that I would want to play at 1920x1080 (16:9) on my 2560x1080 (21:9) monitor. That's all good. I can change the resolution inside Windows or change it in NVIDIA Control Panel so I have black bars on the sides. I want to play on 1400x1050 stretched
    to 1920x1080. Thats fine too IF I play on a monitor with that resolution. But I would want to play on my 21:9 monitor downscaled to 16:9 with black bars while having the 1400x1050 streched TO 16:9. The problem is that when I open the game
    the resolution resets to the native and statches to that so It's 1400x1050 stratched to 2560x1080 instead of streatched to 1920x1080.

    I find it very difficult to explain what I would want to do so here is a graph.

    I'm sorry if the image is hard to see/understand but I am in a hurry and I can't figure out another way.
