Problem with resolution [fixed]

Hi everybody,
I searched all over the forum, but could not find a solution to my problem:
I habe a new flatscreen monitor (24" and now my gp3 1.13 looks a bit "stretched" because I run the monitor on 1920x1080
how can I adjust gp3 so that I can have a "normal" look at it again? It would also be okay for me if there are black spaces on the left and on the right, but not this ugly stretched game...
thanks for your help...!

I can also send you screenshots if you want to...

In your gp3 folder there might be a graphics.cfg file. Open it with notepad and set the first line to 1, then scroll further down, you will see resolution settings that you can change.

i'm sorry, I didn't find this graphics.cfg... maybe it's in gp4...?

that's GP4 mal.

for GP3 - to stop it stretching, you have to fiddle with the graphics settinsg for your graphics card. I know it's possible for NVIdia, not 100% sure for ATi. there may actually be an option on the monitor itself to stop it stretching images. I know there is on mine - it says 'preserve 4:3' or something along those lines, and when an app runs in anything other than widescreen, it puts borders on it

My LG monitor has an option that allows to choose between 4:3 and 16:9 aspects. Maybe yours does

ATI allows that scaling too. In the last versions of Catalyst Control Center you can find it in "Graphics Settings\Digital Panel\Attributes". You must tip "Enable GPU scaling" and "Maintain aspect ratio".
But! On my home computer it doesn't works! ((( I have an old video card Radeon 9600xt - may be it's the reason. I tried this on the newer graphic card - everything was fine - game in center with black bars on the sides. Fortunatly my monitor Dell 2007wfp can do that scaling too.

I think I have found a solution:
my screen setup menu gives an otpion to set the size to "widescreen" OR "automatic".
on "automatic, it gives me black bars on the left and on the right, so that I can play gp3 in "normal" resolution without stretching!
thanks for your help, guys!
