CS:S WS resolution problem.

[u8myrice]

I have the 20.1" Viewsonic LCD @ 1680x1050. I went into video options and chose:

16:10 Widescreen
1680x1050 resolution

When I play the game, everything looks a little distorted. Doesn't widescreen give me a little extra screen on the sides?

Also, all the chat fonts, everything is enlarged. Is this normal? If not, then how do I fix it. Thanks!

The machine's spec is in my sig.

I use 16:10 1920x1200 on my 24" and everything looks good. I tried 1680x1050 and yes the fonts are bigger and uglier but there's is no distortion...

Are you sure it is stretched?

It's not stretched, as far as I can see. But the total vision is cut off. Like, If I use an AK, there's about 3-4 inches of empty space on my right hand. If I use the 1680x1050, there are no empty spaces, and the gun get cut off by like an inch. Everything also looks bigger, including the HUD and the font.
