Sometime back, I had disabled display scaling on my XPS M1210 LCD (specs in sig) from the BIOS settings...
Did it for no specific reason, just that the Windows loading screen etc. would look smaller but much crisper after this.
Anyway, recently i completed dreamfall-TLJ, and decided to have a go at the original "The longest journey"
Ufortunately, being a game from circa '99, it supports a maximum resolution of 640X480 only and without display scaling, it obviously looks a tad too small when it renders on a 640X480 block on a 1280X800 screen.
So I disabled display scaling from the BIOS post which the BIOS screen, windows loading screen etc got blown back to a full screen size. However , after windows loaded up and I fired up TLJ, it would still render ina 640X480 block.
I tried a few other games too (e.g. NFS-MW) after lowering down the resolution to 800X600/640X480 but all games still do not scale and are rendered in a rectangular space with only resolution I am trying to run at (i.e. they do not blow up to fill up the screen the way they used to)
I tried looking at the nVidia display settings but couldn't find any tab that corresponds to scaling...Is there something I am missing here?
