New Monitor
So, my old monitor died when I moved. It was an ex demonstrator that I'd had for about 8 years, so it'd earned it's keep.
I bought a 19" widescreen monitor from ebay, and it finally arrived yesterday.
I installed it, and now my computer, rather than just allowing me to have a wider desktop, has taken the normal desktop and stretched it out to fit the wider screen.
I've played around with the resolution sizes available to me, and even when selecting a 16:10 ratio resolution, I'm still getting the stretched effect.
Does anyone know if that's normal, or is it due to the crappy onboard video card I have?
Any help would be muchly appreciated.
