madglover Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Ok, so first things first. I managed to install Dune 2000 on my windows 7 laptop thanks to gruntlord. It works fine which is fantastic.I then used the CD to install it on a refurbished windows xp pc, and the picture is only centralised in the middle of the screen on a really small size. Is there any simple way to increase the size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you had an lcd, it would be stretched to a higher resolution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athanasios Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Probably not CRT but LCD. CRT can be resized at will and refresh rate too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

athanasios Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 How so? I have CRTs only, use XP, your version of Dune2K and it spans all the screen. And I use various old PCs too, where the graphics cards are different. There you adjust the refresh rate/resoluion (even create a custom one: 640x400 if it doesn't exist) and keep a shortcut of a setting with a 3rd party applet to adjust the screen if it doesn't fit and you are bored/don't want to turn the knobs of your monitor all the time.
