Hi, I've played with D2 "Rebirth" and got the widescreen resultions to work
just fine, much higher than the original 1024x768.

As you know, D3 has higher resolutions but they are all 4:3 aspect.  I tried
setting the height and width variables in the shortcut, and while I seemed
to get a good display, the rendering itself was only 4:3 in the middle of my
screen, not rendering the edges.

Any way to change that?

I think it much easy to keep your old 4:3 monitor, you can use widescreen on 
new games...

peace of mind.

I don't like stretch 4:3 into widescreen cos it wrong...
