Very sweet. Thanks a ton.

Ah. Nice.

Could you please give me the values for these resolutions?
1408 792
1536 864
1664 936
1792 1008
They aren't listed, so I'd appreciate if you could give me the formatted values for them, or teach me how to calculate them.

Windows Accessories > Calculator > View > Programmer

Input a Dec number, then click Hex to convert it.

e.g 1408 Dec = 580 Hex.

To format this hex value for use in a file, first write this number in pairs of digits, adding a zero before the first digit as needed.

e.g 580 is 05 80.

Then rewrite this group of digits starting with the last pair

e.g 80 05

1408 (dec) is 80 05 (formatted),
792 (dec) is 18 03 (formatted),
1536 (dec) is 00 06 (formatted),
864 (dec) is 60 03 (formatted), and so on.

There's more on the subject in Basic Hex Helper Information.

Thanks dude, your comment was helpful, i never knew i could do it myself. So i used these resolutions on Commandos 2 game and not all of them are working, sometimes the game just has a black screen, but at least i can use some that fit perfectly with my monitor's radio. I will update the res that works when i play again and ask you how to push this limit to be higher and wider. Cheers!
