i cannot play games with 4:3 streched, im on a laptop running windows 10

i try changing my resolution and i get black bars.

I understand that intel released a new version of drivers that fixes this, but it wasn't supported for me.

Here are my computer specs: https://gyazo.com/71ac30c03f88ccf0982c6b254006cef1 Gyazo - 71ac30c03f88ccf0982c6b254006cef1.png

If anyone has an idea on how to fix this or any questions please let me know, thank you

Hi Fauxset,

 

 

I did replicate this custom resolution, it works well, and the main aspect is that it uses only one part of the built display, that's why those black bars appear.

It is important to mention that we sell our Intel chipsets and processors to third party manufacturers and they design their own computers with their own features, settings, and capabilities. For that reason, they design their own drivers, to meet the exact specifications on their computers, regards that you can try installing the resolution you are looking for. 1440x1050.

 

 

Please try uninstalling current driver version installed, using this method;
  • Open the Device Manager.
  • Find the Intel Graphics Driver.
  • Right click Intel Graphics Driver and select Uninstall.
  • Select the check box
  • Delete the driver software for this device.
  • Reboot the computer after the uninstalling process has finished.

 

Then try installing the driver manually.
