    I tried to find similar problem using search but I didn't. So here is the deal: I recently updated my graphic driver to the newest one which can be found from asus-notebook driver section. After installing it every game had this two black boxes on each side of the screen and changing the resolution didn't solve the problem. So I uninstalled those drivers, rebooted and went to safe mode, used driver cleaner to get rid off it completely and then rebooted and started windows normally. After that I installed drivers from cd that came with this notebook, rebooted. After doing these I still have this same problem, every time I start a game theres 2 black boxes on each side of the screen.
    So what should I do to fix this?
    Have I accidently messed up my startup programs or register etc? :(
    If you don't know what I mean with those "black boxes" I can take screenshot and link it to here.

    First of all, get rid of the asstastic Asus Drivers.

    Download the 163.44 BIOSHOCK revision from Laptopvideo2go.com

    Make sure you download and replace the INF file as well.

    That said, there is an option on the Nvidia control panel to change the scaling to stretch or be fixed.

    These drivers, coupled with that setting, should fix your problem.
