*''Aspect Ratio'': You can select the window aspect ratio (shape) here. If you have a widescreen (16:9) monitor you may want to remove the left and right black bars to get a better experience. Unfortunately many games do not natively support wide screen aspect ratio and selecting it here will cause the image to stretch which may not be a desirable side effect. Some games however may be helped to support 16:9 resolution by special ''widescreen patches'' made by the community. If the game neither have the native 16:9 support nor the patch to overcome this your only options are to play it with 4:3 aspect ratio with black bars or bear with image stretching whichever option is the best for you. You can choose ''Standard (4:3)'', ''Widescreen (16:9)'' or ''Fit to Window/Screen'' here. In the latter case image will always be stretched. | *''Aspect Ratio'': You can select the window aspect ratio (shape) here.
