Hey guys!

Am new to these forums but I like to play old games from time to time so chances are I may be posting here occasionally.

Well that would be the case if I could actually play them! :blink:

I bought a new TV recently which I have connected to my PC via a DVI to HDMI cable. It works great for everything except old games...

For some reason it won't accept a resolution of anything less than 800x600 in PC mode. Disabling PC mode enables lower resolutions but the picture quality is so poor that playing on it isn't worthwhile to me.

So I need to find a way of forcing games to run at certain resolutions (minimum of 800x600). I assume this is possible because games which work in ScummVM have the option of being scaled up to them. So is there a similar method I could use for games which won't run in ScummVM?

I should add that these games were made to run in Windows, so is not a DOSBox solution.
