Some games won't fit my screen :(

So I use a 26 inch lcd tv for my monitor (It's all I have). I have it connected via an hd cable to my computer, and mostly things are fine. I set it to 1080p, but the screen size works out to something like 1700 x 992 or something.

Most games have no problem fitting the screen, but some games (most notable Red Alert 3 :( ) are always too big for the screen no matter what resolution I set them to. RA3 is always too big on the edges, so I can't see all the menu buttons and stuff in game. It's infuriating. And none of the resolution options match what I set other games to in order to get them to fit. Is there anything I can do about this?

I'm running vista 64.

Change them manually through the config.ini or config.cfg. I dont own the game so it is either through program files or AppData (you need to make it so you can view all files and folders to see this one)

Hey, that worked perfectly. Thanks a lot!
