New Graphics Card

I just installed a Radeon 9600 on my system, replacing that POS GeForce 2 MX 400 I had. Problem is, ZC and ZQuest look really odd. They extend the whole screen horizontally, but vertically they only take up about 1/3 of the screen. The result is essentially unplayable. Anybody have suggestions on how to fix this?

On screen monitor controls? Or perhaps use -windowed switch with whatever that big option is. It probably has something to do with your card's drivers and allegro I guess. Like I said, you could try windowed mode.

Yeah, that works, and zelda with the '-res 512 448 big' option is fine (I'd like fullscreen, but we can't always have our way). However, ZQuest is exceptionally small and hard to see. Is there any way to stretch it short of using the buggy 'large' mode?
