I downloaded a game on the internet, and now my screen does not match my screen. I have two large black areas on each side of my screen. How to resize my screen to fit the screen of my computer? (and yes I tried the button expand) :))

Hello val2000, welcome.

These games is managed inside of Internet Explorer? If this isn't the case, then I suggest contacting the manufacturer of your computer for the latest pgrahics drivers. If installation of those who does not resolve the problem, then try to change your resolution to one of the following values (depending on the size of your screen):

1024 x 768
1280 x 800 (wide, common form for laptops)
1280 x 1024
1680 x 1050 (widescreen)

To change your resolution:

1. click on START
2. click on "Control Panel."
3. double click on "display".
4. click on the tab "settings".
5. change the resolution on your cursor tab and then click on 'Apply' at the bottom right
