Diablo 2 resolution problem?

So i'm playing Diablo 2 again (Lod), on my new laptop thats a widescreen in native 1920x1080. When i'm playing d2, it runs at its maximum res -800x600, but its as if its keeping my screen in the full resolution and only using a block of 800x600 in the middle of the screen. Can i get it to just stretch to fit? It would do that on my old computer with a 1280x1024 monitor.

Umm not sure if i can help you with that, but if ur playing on U.S West i can deck you out with some pretty good items if you want i dont play it much any more and i got alot of soj's and High runes ect if u want i can give u some :)

oh damn. well i am on us west ladder. User name and main character is Shmimbadad. look me up next time you're on.

Here is a custom mod that allows you to set D2 to any resolution that your monitor supports. The only downside is that it inhibits online play.

That's probably a setting with your graphics card, something for automatic aspect-ratio scaling or something like that.

Even Intel based graphics usually have some way to force streatching.
