@ Danicek: That's what I thought you meant, but just wanted to be sure.
@ txa1265: Okay, thanks for the tip, I'll check that out on the games I'm having trouble with.
My panel does fine with everything else, like movies that aren't in widscreen format. It just doesn't work on games. This is my first Plasma panel, so I guess I've learned a valuable lesson. Well consider this a caution: The LG Flatron Wide, model LG L194WT, will burn your retinas with an incredile 2000:1 contrast ratio, but may not always display non-native game resolutions correctly.
I'll also check for any driver updates for the monitor itself. I'm current on everything else.
