    To start, this program is very new to me, I just found it and I am very grateful for it. I was trying to get my very old cd game of Pump It Up Fusion to work and it while it can't play natively on my computer (the audio works but the video just flashes and doesn't show anything) this program lets me at least see it and so thank you so much!

    I have run into an issue though with running the program where the game's screen is smaller than the window and it results in a gray border. I was wondering if this is a known issue that has a known fix or if anyone can help me diagnose. I am trying to get this game setup to be played at my wedding in 2 weeks. Any help woud be greatly appreciated.

    I've tried to mess with various settings with no success, but I also don't really know much about the display settings. I'm usually very technologically savvy but definitely not in this area.

    An effect like this is usually due to the missing scaling of GDI operations. Please, try setting the "GDI > Scale GDI calls" flag.

      Thanks so much for the response. I set Scale GDI calls but I'm seeing the same effect.

        In the video tab, try putting values 640x480 and enable Initial/Max/Inital+Max resolution box.
