Hello folks,
I got a new computer screen one month ago, a 24" one, whose resolution is 1920x1200.
Unfortunately PCM 2007 can't handle more than 1680 x 1050 at first sight.
Does anyone know if it's possible to use the game in 1920x1200 ?
I guess the options are stored in a file somewhere, but I can't seem to find where.
Thanks for helping ! |

Try looking in the GAM_config table. I don't have any DB editor at this computer, so I can't check, but I guess it's in there. |

If you click alt+enter, doesn't you get "full screen" then? |

Thanks Crue, I'll try tonight. I mean I can play in full screen mode, but with a lower resolution, which means that I get an upscaling (not very nice) and that I'm losing some precious display space for the 3D race. |

I have that with PCM1, but when I mailed the technical help about it they said it wouldnt be possible... so I think think its possible now... you'll just have to put down the resolution of your screen... |

Got it working... The files I was looking for are in C:\Docs & settings\my name\application data\PCM 2007\config
There are two .xml files, option and graphicconfig something like that. I opened both with a text editor and set the resolution to 1920x1200.
My attempt failed, the game set itself back to 1680x1050. My second attempt worked though, after editing the files back I set their status to "read only" and now it's displayed right as it should.
