===Fix Letterboxing on 4:3 Monitor while in 4:3 Mode===
 
 
Navigate to your /AppData/Local/CAPCOM/Resident Evil - biohazard@HD REMASTER folder<br />
 
Open the file config.ini<br />
 
In the '''[DISPLAY]''' section add the line:
 
 
'''Aspect=4:3'''
 
 
This can also be used to solve additional horizontal (16:9) letterboxing that also appears in 4:3 mode while using a 5:4 or 16:10 monitor, just add the line with your monitors ratio instead
 
 
'''Aspect=5:4'''<br />
 
or<br />
 
'''Aspect=16:10'''
