Widescreen resolution

All resolutions stretch from 4:3 without this fix.
Because the game is internally rendered in a 16:9.4 aspect ratio instead of 16:9, you will see some very small borders on both sides of the game when playing in 16:9.

Audio/Video Sync

If you are having problems with the sound not syncing up with the picture, go launch SettingsApplication.exe, go to "Sound Settings" and choose your Sound Card.[2]

Note that using a monitor with a native refresh rate above 60 Hz may also lead to sync issues. To correct this, change your refresh rate to 60 Hz or use an FPS limiting program (such as Dxtory) to set the max FPS to 60.
