Games on a widescreen moniter?

a couple of the games i play on my widescreen laptop im pretty sure dont support a widescreen view (according to the options in the game) as of right now, the games play with their original resolution, with just black area on each side. for some reason this just bothers me, and i would rather have the game be stretched horizontally a little bit, or kindof have the game be a window that i can minimize %26amp; move around (like you can with solitaire) is there a way to get that?



i have an hp pavilion entertainment laptop, with Vista. and 2 of the games im talking about are sim city 4, and civilization IVGames on a widescreen moniter?
you just go into the graphics settings, and look for an option that says "windowed mode" or something similar, or if there is a "fullscreen" checkbox, then just uncheck it. if you don't find it in the options, then look under that advanced tab. this won't be necessary with new games though as almost every game that came out recently (except for battlefield) supports widescreen resolutions.
