Ingame resolution problems

[Christoffer424]

I've been playing Arma 2 + OA for years now without problems but when i updated my nvidia drivers the ingame resolution in arma 2 + OA is not proper.
Its as if the screen is the right size on the V axis, but on the H axis its too big, and thus cuts of like 1/8 of the screen to the right. I've tried to fix this
by going to documents/arma2/arma2OA and change the options but it doesnt help. I've also tried to change the resolution ingame, and with the nvidia
control panel but im none the wiser.

Im using a

Geforce 320 GT

Pentium (R) Dual-Core CPU

What about some info that would help us to locate the error? You know, what is your screens native resolution, width to height ration, how looks your .cfg file, what is the setting in your driver menu? usual nonsense, you know.


Right now, looking at your description, the most precise answer that can be given, is: something is wrong.

My Native Resolution is 1920 x 1080. Its a 50 inch plasma tv. It's also my set resolution in my Nvidia controll panel and ingame. I dont have any problems with any other games either, just the arma games.

My Arma2OA.CFG:

language="English";
adapter=-1;
3D_Performance=48387;
Resolution_Bpp=32;
Windowed=0;
Resolution_W=1600;
Resolution_H=900;
refresh=60;
winX=16;
winY=32;
winW=800;
winH=600;
winDefW=800;
winDefH=600;
Render_W=1600;
Render_H=900;
FSAA=0;
postFX=0;
GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1000;
GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=3;
HDRPrecision=8;
lastDeviceId="";
localVRAM=1026097152;
nonlocalVRAM=2147483647;
vsync=0;
AToC=7;
FXAA=0;
PPAA=0;
PPAA_Level=0;

[[FRL]Myke]

Resolution_W=1600;
Resolution_H=900;
...
...
Render_W=1600;
Render_H=900;

Change these to your screen resolution:

Resolution_W=1920;
Resolution_H=1080;
...
...
Render_W=1920;
Render_H=1080;

might wanna run a lower 3d res, a 320GT isn't what I'd call powerfull.

I have already tried doing that [FRL]Myke. It didnt solve it. I have tried every resolution change ingame and in the; Arma2.cfg(and OA), aswell as in the nvidia control panel but the same problem remains, No matter the resolution. But when I take a screenshot of it, it shows the entire screen as it should be in the screenshot. I'm starting to think it might be a incompatability or something with the actual update. Like stated, GT 320 isnt exactly powerfull and the nvidia updates for it may not be prioritized, seeing how its not exactly gaming computer material, and thus less stable and tried out?

Some kind of a longshot but try to change the refreshrate to 50.

That did not work either
