WMMA 3 on Netbook

[Guest thegame69dx]

Hi,

 

is WMMA working on a Netbook?

I mean the resolution on a netbook is about 1000x600.

Is it displayed proberly?

[Adam Ryland]

No, the minimum requirements for WMMA3 are 1024x768.

There may be video drivers you can load to your netbook to get around this.

 

Trying looking for your laptop name and search terms like

resolution driver

virtual desktop driver

 

 

 

I know I found a driver fro my eeePc that let me go as high as 1200x1024 despite the "default" selection at most being 800x600 as it was a tiny 7" screen...

I have a Acer Aspire One D255 netbook, and I found a way to run WMMA3 on it.

 

• Right-click the desktop, and select Properties.
  
• On the Display Properties window, select the Settings tab.
  
• On the Settings Tab, Right-click the monitor one icon, and select Properties.
  
• On the Plug and Play Monitor and Intel® Media Accelerator window, click the Monitor tab.
  
• On the Monitor Tab, under Monitor Settings, unclick Hide modes that this monitor can not display. Then click Apply and Ok.
  

 

You should now be able to change the screen resolution to 1024 x 768, and be able to run the game.

 

To Adam: Feel free to sticky this post for those with netbooks.

That option is grayed on my Aspire one.

If your netbook has Windows 7 you can do this.
