I've got an iPod that I sometimes use for interwebz surfing, but I don't usually access Probards with it, soI guess that's one app I don't need.

If I ever got an iPad, I'd never use my laptop again.

I find a physical keyboard much easier to use than a touchscreen - no proper feedback.
Also, I need to do large amounts of word processing, often involving letters all across the BMP.

Hey guys, got a problem and need some help, please.
As the 13th installment of the Toho series was announced, I thought I'd replay previous games in the series - it makes a long time I didn't play these actually.
But something's bothering me. The fullscreen mode takes the whole screen, so it's stretched and it bothers me during gameplay. And the window mode is too small for me. So, how do you add black bars at both sides of the screen (I think these are called sidebars), please ?

Do you mean Tohou? Like the bullet hell game? But anyways, I have similar problems with other PC games and... I'm looking forward to the answer to your question...

It'd actually be "Touhou" but we don't say "Kuribou" so...

For a language as simple as Japanese, it's amazing how complicated transcription is.
Anyhow, you probably need to adjust your graphics card settings, since most games are for monitors with a 4:3 ratio and new computers are sold with 16:9 widescreen monitors. I'd need to know what graphics card you have for more precise advice.

Alas, I have a similar graphics card, but I can't give you much help at the moment because ATI Catalyst Control Center (the program for changing card settings) won't run for me. I'm trying to get some help with that since reinstalling hasn't worked - SP1 might have broken it - but open it up and check Display Management and Video Settings.

Oh, thanks... um... where to download it, I wonder ? I could only find ATI Catalyst Display Driver, but after searching for half a hour I still couldn't find a download link for Catalyst Control, not even on the official site. Sigh.
EDIT: Nevermind. I'm an idiot.
But what's the use of Display Driver ? Is it important ?
EDIT: Never-ever-mind. I'm a moron.
Didn't see the "individual downloads" part.
EDIT: So... it's just a bunch of files. Which one should I open... ?

The Display Driver is the part that actually puts pictures on your screen.
Control Center is for messing with settings; when I downloaded it, it was one installer.

I mean, I installed it, and now there's a bunch of files. Should I download Display Driver too, or is there a specific file to open, or did I somehow mess up because I epicly fail at everything I do and should re-download it ?
Really, thanks for the help. ^^
EDIT: Alright, now it's official, I have blood relations with Bowser AND Cirno AND Homer Simpson. It happens I had the logicial all along, I just didn't notice it. Could someone hit me with a baseball bat, please ?
EDIT: OH YEEEAAAAH. It works. IT WOOORKS. Now I can play Toho games without constantly seeing small fat girls ! ... But it's almost 3 a.m here. Ciao ! And infinite thanks ! : D

www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ktn9P15z4ASo, yeah, this is awesome. And, yes, I'm posting this because it's made by a Frenchman. It actually made me want to try out Golden Sun for the GBA. This game is pretty great.

It is now officially summer vacation for me, and now I can be on these forums all day. At least, when there's other people to talk to....

I'll be out of school in a week or two, so I'll be free then. Maybe this place will be as active as last summer...
