Support for vertical resolutions?[message #321055]

I know this is probably a weird request. Maybe someone even knows a trick for this...

So the thing is i got a phone with windows 7 (Fujitsu F-07C) in Japan, not so much for phoning but because its prolly the smallest win 7 laptop ever.

The native resolution of the display is 1024x600.

So i can play fine in windowed mode on 800x600 or 640x480.

I really wanted to have it fullscreen so that is where my troubles began. The driver is pretty stupid as bz default it only offers "1024x600" (well...) and 480x640 (No kidding, no typo, seriously).

So someone said i should get a newer driver (Intel GMA 600) and now it offers more resolutions but they are all that weird vertical type, like 768x1024, 600x800 and so on. Yeah no typo they are kinda flipped or so. Actually they "look and feel" normal but of course games are like "Switching to 800x600, awwww your gfx card doesnt support it..."

Is there any trick to fool the games by selling them the 768x1024 as 1024x768 or so? I was looking for a tool to do that but no luck so far. I looked in the JA2 ini but they of course only support "normal" resolutions.

I kinda still hope for a solution as i dont like windowed mode so much and JA2 was the main reason i bought this phone... Yeah weird problem, so i guess its only me, but any feedback is highly appreciated.

Edit: I looked around a bit and it seems some mods support 1024x600 - any recommendations here? I dont understand much about these SVN repositories and dont want a chinese version or so, which mod is close to the "normal" latest 1.13 and supports 1024x600?
