Guys, i've got MacBook Pro 2006 with ATI X1600 onboard. When i was using Win XP the driver i used had scaling option like always, but now i've installed Win 7 x64 and used modded driver for it Catalyst 10.2, and there are no option to set scaling. So it displays low resolution as it is, for eg 640x480 will be a small box in the center.

Maybe i can set this via registry?

Okay, i found a weird way to do what i want. If i use simple catalyst windows i'll see this feature, though it launches with bunch of error messages. Then it will work, but only once. I launch the game, it works scaled, then i turn it off and if launch another one it will be small.

I'm sure scaling settings are set via registry, wonder i can track the change system do and repeat it with reg file.

Case solved. I downgraded the driver. From 10.02 to 8.12. Now the panel is in place.
