Erogamer Posted June 3, 2017 Posted June 3, 2017 Either driver issues or a bad card. Try rolling back to an older driver. Quote

What you are seeing is the game in its intended aspect ratio, It's SUPPOSED to have black bars. If you get rid of them and stretch the game across the whole screen, it's just that, stretched. Everything will appear wider than it's supposed to be. Some people still prefer playing this way. If you want, you can go into your graphics card driver settings and there should be options for how to handle these situations. In NVidia's control panel, tell it to overwrite application settings, set it to have the GPU do the scaling, and then select the option that stretches the image across the whole screen.

I have built multiple PCs and this would not hurt his computer. You can always update it back to current driver. Perhaps it was not the best advice based on his particular issue, but He should have explained it better or provided a picture. He just said black bars or lines which could be a gpu problem. You know sometimes they are flawed from the factory. It could also, be a driver issue. So don't talk down to someone when you do not know about their experience level on the topic. I notice you speak/type in a condescending manner to a lot of people on here and it is an attitude you need to change. Quote
