    hey guys,

    I just ran 3dmark vantage on my m1530 with 174.31 drivers from laptopvideo2go instead of the vantage optimized 175.12 drivers. But vantage could only run with the aspect ratio of 5:4 instead of filling up the whole screen. Any reason for that?
    As vantage could only run once, i subsequently tried to run 3dmark 06 basic version which used to run in full screen format but now only runs in 5:4 aspect ratio. So any way to make 3dmark06 run in full screen mode again? Thanks for ur help.

    Izac

    Go to the nvidia control panel and select change flat pane scaling and then select: use Nvidia scaling (not with fixed aspect ratio)... that should do the trick (and also stretch the view)

    cheers
