For laptops with widescreens.. Nvidia also has settings in the display options under "Digital Flat panel Settings"..

For my laptop i set it up to fixed aspect ratio scaling.. but on my desktop i let me monitor do the scaling so i set that option to Monitor scaling...

Thanks dude, that worked.

Change the setting on your monior not to scale it to the full screen and just have the black bars on the sides.. thats what I do with my games that dont support widescreenDeath_Masta187

Thanks, but I couldn't find the settings for that. If I have a laptop display can I still do that?

Anyone got D3DWindower or DxWnd to work in XP SP2 for Fallout?

Why don't you just play the game full screen?evil_dutchman90

I have a wide screen so the graphics are stretched. Looks jacked up.

try compatibility modecrapdog

Yep, tried that along with trying to change the colors to 256 and also run as 640 x 480. Nothing is working yet.

I finally recieved Fallout 1 and 2 in the mail and can't wait to play em. Problem is that I am using DxWnd to window the game. I have tried different version od DxWnd and nothing works. Basically what heppens is that the windowed Fallout pops up but it is a black screen. I can hear sound but that is it.

My graphics card is a nVidia GeForce 6800.

I can't tell you how bad I want to finally play this game. Any help would be appreciated.

Fallout 1 works fine on Vista for me, not sure about 2.Shadow-Eagle

You have any issues with colors or black screen when you play Fallout on Vista?

Never played Fallout but I played Wasteland and absolutely loved it. One of the best games ever. I've heard Fallout is the sequel to Wasteland and have been dying to play it. Anyway, to my question.....

I would like to know if anyone has successfully played Fallout 1 and 2 on Vista?
