Widescreen Gaming
I use a Toshiba HDTV screen as my computer screen, and it is set at 1360 x 768 max resolution. I'm having a problem with playing some games because when the game starts, the screen beyond the Center and there is no options in the game that will allow me to fix it.
I'm currently under Windows 7 RC. Is there an alternative solution to fixing the problem?
Yes, the alternative is to check the view support for the game. Another thing you can try is to download the latest driver for your video card. Do not use windows update drivers, but is actually going to the site of the video card to get the driver. Apart from that there's really not much you can do and hope that the game has a patch that will support widescreen and pray is not an EA game.
I have a simple philosophy: just assume everyone is a piece of c.r.a.p. and then be pleasantly surprised if you find someone who is not.

I have windows 7 installed in my laptop... When I tried to play "NFS Most Wanted" the game would not hold the entire screen. The game only uses a square in the screen area. I have searched and tried all the video settings in the game and it does not solve the problem. How can I change the image format for this game. Is it possible to use windows options to solve this problem... If so, please provide a list drawn up by steps in the instructions. Thanks :)
You may be able to make the game to adapt to the full screen, but it looks better in the original
format as it extends sideways to fit a large screen.
Many other games will fit widescreen, but chop off the top and bottom of the image
in order to adapt without stretching, which also draws in shortcut field of vision a bit.For NFS - MW, I use a special launcher that allows you to select a resolution.
I use 1600 X 1024 on my 1920 X 1080 screen. This res makes the image a little wider, but only it extends a small amount, and you can still see the front of the car from the inside view (the driving position I like better).
The Launcher used to appear on the website below, but I don't know if it's still there.Category: games - Widescreen Gaming Wiki
It should also be options in your graphics control panel to force the big screen with
everything. With Nvidia, it's to ' set the office size and position "------"Scaling ".

HP 040na-870 Omen gaming pc: hp 870-040na omen gaming pc
just a small question is - it normal that my new hot omen gaming pc around the case mainly in the back reading fallout 4, or is there a way to see what is the base temperature
@freddy5, welcome to the forum.
You have a great computer!
If the heat comes where fans take the heat of the matter, it's normal. The 970 GTX video card develops a lot of heat.
Here is a Guide to temperature Intel. You can use Intel Extreme Tuning Utilityto check your CPU time. Just know that if you decide to use the features of setting, you should be extremely careful. The faster the processor, the highter the time. When you open the app, it will give you several caveats you have to answer in the affirmative to use it.

HP Pavilion Gaming 15 - ak155nm: problem with detection m.2 SSD
Hello
I built a computer with M.2 Intel SSD 256 GB 600p and for some reason it does not detect the SSD m2. I have HP Pavilion 15 - ak155nm portable Gaming. Please help.
Thank you
Toni
Yes.
The Samsung 850 Pro is compatible with the motherboard of your laptop and the BIOS.
A 256 GB SSD would be a better choice if you can afford it. You can install the operating system of the laptop to it.
The ability of a DSS must be 160 GB or more to allow using the recovery USB key that you need to have created now.

: Power 250W power supply
Several features of the product: HP Pavilion p6604f
Hi guys, just a high school student I was wondering if you guys can help me pls on products would be to make my game better experience (which can make me play1980x1080 with medium-high settings and do SPFP higher resolution). There has been suggestions where I should buy GeForce GT 430 and a power supply Corsair 500W PC Power Supply (CMPSU-500CXV2) . Usually, I'd play on 1440 x 900 (30 fps) very low settings with games (LoL and tf2) that are not too hardcore. I have
GPU dimensions: 5.8 x 0.7 x 4.3 inches; 8 ounces
"Power supply Dimensions: 5.9"x 3.4"X 5.5"
Please give me your thoughts and your guides on which would be the best thing to do and buy. Thank you for your time!
Toolayzie, welcome to the forum.
The video card you listed should work on your computer. However, I suggest you contact Technical Support from the manufacturer for help to choose the best card for your situation. They will be able to get you a card that will be much better. I love EVGA products. Their Technical Support (1-888-881-3842) is very good. I believe that you can be able to upgrade to an EVGA GT 640. They are a little hard to find, but worth the search. Something more recent need UEFIin the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.
The power supply (PSU) you listed is fine. However, I suggest that you look at a modular power supply. They only connect the cables which are absolutely necessary for your components. This allows better air circulation and reduces the heat in a medium-sized case. You should compare the measurements of your current diet to one you choose. Corsair is passionate about quality products with a reasonable price. The PSU is the backbone of the computer. You want one that provides a clean and stable power and Corsair does that very well.
Since you're a player, you would be blown away by the new games desktop and HP laptops. I use a HP Omen gaming laptop. It is as powerful as any game their computers. I used both.

Try the following.
Download the Realtek Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.
http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp73001-73500/sp73189.exe
When finished, press and hold the Windows key and press R.
In the run window, type devmgmt.msc and press ENTER.
In the Device Manager window, expand sound, video and game controllers. Right click on the Realtek device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.
When you are finished, download and reinstall the Chipset driver at the following link.
http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp72501-73000/sp72862.exe
After reinstalling, shut down the laptop, unplug the AC adapter and then remove the battery. Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds. Reinsert the battery and plug in the AC adapter.
Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu. Press f9 to load the default values (sometimes it is f5, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER. Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.
When windows has reloaded, open your download folder, right-click on the setup of Realtek Audio and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation. Once this done, restart the laptop again and let Windows take over completely for a few minutes before checking.
Kind regards

Satellite A110-103 - 2 GB RAM - gaming performance optimization - SOLUTION
Hello
For those of you who have 2 GB of RAM installed on the laptop and want to play games like f.e.a.r.2 PROJECT ORIGIN, it's performance that I have tested on my Toshiba Satellite A110-103!
If you want to add 2 GB of RAM or more to your laptop please read [this post and my experience with upgrades RAM | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=153005#153005]! It could help you save money!
Before you install the 2 GB of RAM, I used to have a paging file 4096 defined in Windows for drive C.
After that I installed the 2 GB of RAM, I wanted to play f.e.a.r.2 Project Origin on low heat.
However, the game played horrible with low display rate. So I wanted to know if there is a way to disable virtual memory (swap file) and only use real RAM.Most of the discussions about the paging files disabling said it there is no way or point by doing this!
Well, I decided to give it a try!I disabled the paging file to * start-> Control Panel - > system-> advanced-> performance-> settings-> advanced-> virtual memory - > Exchange-> no paging file *. I restarted my laptop and after the reboot in my case I could see the big difference in speed!
TEST: I opened FEAR2 - Project Origin started playing and my character's movement, where much more receptive and lag-free! : D
Conclusion: In my case disable virtual memory (swap file) really boosted my gaming experience! And I play on an ATI X200M with 256 MB shared memory card!
Try this and if you get good results please post them here! I haveBest regards
Marius GigiHi dude
Thanks for this message
Usually the pagefile should help you increase the performance of RAM
USIN the page file, the data that must be stored in RAM would be transferred to the HARD disk and therefore a pieces of RAM would be freeHowever, thank you for this return of experience and your comments!

Can I use 22 "WIDESCREEN TFT with my laptop Satellite Pro?
I currently use an external monitor standard 17 "TFT on my laptop Sat Pro. My laptop has a standard 15 "screen that I don't use.
Can I upgrade my VGA monitor to a 22 "WIDESCREEN TFT monitor?
Will be my Mobile Intel (r) 915GM/GMS, 910GML Express Chipset cope and use the entire screen?Thanks - Martin
Hello
You will be able to use the 22 "WIDESCREEN TFT monitor, but the question is whether you will be able to choose your favorite screen resolution? :|
If the doesn t graphics card driver supports the resolution you want to use, then you will not be able to choose and use it on the external monitor.Sometimes an update of the graphics driver (from Intel page) can help get these certain screen resolutions but does that mean doesn t a graphic driver update always helps.
