my tft runs perfect at 1280x1024 (19 inch Sony)

but i like to sit back from my screen, so everything is a bit small....

so Id go for a smaller resolution... but they always distort things

dont like changing font sizes etc... always looks so messed up

1280x1024 is a ratio or 1.25 to 1
all the other settings i have run at 1.33 to 1

and Im guessing thats the problem ?

is there anything I can do to get more options ?

I know it sounds like a dumb question, and Im pretty sure its a gfx card thing (shuttle onbord).... but I had an old pc years ago that had about a hundred different resolutions to choose from

Problem is usually becauseof how the TFT screen is constructed, if you reduce the resolution then it might cause problems because you are no longer using 1 pixel on screen to represent each actual pixel.

Right click on screen, choose settings/advanced/general and change the dpi settings see if that helps.

thing is, i HATE changing the dip setting, screws everything up, its not in preportion ! Id rather die tbh
(its just one of those things...)

i know what you mean, but i think a nother resolution at 1 to 1.25 would be ok.... others just look stretched in once direction... appart from that quality is fine

short of halfing the res itll always look crap tbh.
lcds dont look nearly as sharp if your not matching up the pixels 1:1 or 1:2.

LCDs have native ress for a reason Sadly itll always look crap at any res lower than its native

I have a 19" and usually have 1280x1024 but find 1152x864 acceptable.
