You can't. If it's a 1600 DX and your using a laptop you've got no chance. You can mess around with screen resolution so much but the 1600's are virtually impossible to play.

would it be possible for you to point me in the right direction for an emulator that would work seeing i am using a laptop and would it still work with the machines i have now? many thanks

The 1024 x XXX size works on a laptop. Just bought a Netbook so nothing works on that !!!

MFME 3.2 automatically resizes the layouts to the size of your screen. http://www.fruit-emu.com/forums/downloa ... -3-2-2098/ ... Will only play older machines though.

Your best bet is to look for the 1024 resolution DXs and classics which should fit on a laptop screen.

There's a daily limit. If you don't want wait you'll have to donate to the site to get unlimited downloads.
Also If you haven't made a post there then thank someone for a layout, your account won't activate properly till you post.

You can. I really should copy this to a text file or something

Right click on your desktop. Go into properties.

Now hit the settings tab at the top.

Now advanced.

Now Monitor tab.

Tick the check box that states 'Hide modes that his monitor cannot display'

Apply.
