Greetings all,

I have a new dual G5 2.7 at home. I am running Call Of Duty. The games video settings are for standard aspect ratio. On my 20" iMac at work when I run the game it shows 2 black bars at the left and right and the image looks fine. At home, on my Dell widscreen, the standard aspect ratio of the game is for some reason stretched giving a weird look to the game. Can;t figure out how to get it to display properly with the 2 black bars at the side.

Anyone know?

Also, if anyone out there has the Dual 2.7 and runs this game I'd love to know what your settings are.

Cheers,

Scott

There's a setting on your Dell monitor under Image Settings. Set Scaling to 1:1 and it won't stretch the image.

I never would have figured that out on my own. Thank you.
