Hello, I had some scaling problems on AT2 on toshiba 430CDT. This is what I get with vexp M2 T (second image) and this is what I get without vexp (first image). On AT2.ini there is these options :

screen_mode=0         ; program screen mode:
                      ;   [0] classic view (90x40 @ 720x480) (recommended)

I tried several screen mode but only the first one and 3 works, other give me a black screen. In the 3rd mode (comp text mode) only 0 and 1 works but it’s really dirty… I tried custom SVGA mode with several configurations, but it’s like the screen mode=0 config, nothing change, I also tried to change crt register values, and text column and rows but nothing change…
