Just use VLC or Xine, or whatever, and pick "Full Screen', usually under 
the view tab. If it's letter-boxed, I don't think there is much you can 
do about that, unless you have a very wide monitor. No probs here. I do 
use nVidia graphic cards and use it's setup util to set my monitor's 
resolution. Ric
