Widescreen Voodoo 5 & mem help needed
« on: November 04, 2006, 03:22:55 PM »
Hey all, I finally broke down and got a 22" widescreen for my PC.  Didn't want my Miggy tower to feel left out so I hooked it up to the VGA input to switch back and forth.

But not is shows everything in letterbox type fashon!!!  I have a 1" black border on top and bottom and no matter what I do, I can't get the Picasso96mode software to stretch it.
Is there any thing I can do?  I've heard of others makeing their own mode setups for this type of thing but have NO idea how to do it...

As for the Memory, I've had several ppl. say that the random system halts I've been getting could be memory, but all the mem checkers on Aminet that I've found are old and either say everything is fine or lock up instantly.  Is there a good up to date mem checker anyone could point me to?

Tankz!
