Aptiva - 2163/2164 Considerations - Limited scaling on RIVA 128ZX

Applicable to: World-Wide

Description:
Limited scaling on RIVA 128ZX

Models affected:
All with DVD

How to duplicate:
Scaling of the video window by dragging the edges of the window is not permitted on RIVA 128 ZX by design. In addition, there is a minor limitation when switching from maximized to fullscreen mode that makes the edges of the video window appear cut off.

Root cause:
Bad scaling is an inherent limitation in the RIVA 128 ZX chipset.

Workaround:
An Update Connector fix for DVD Express will be provided to fix the minor scaling issue when switching from maximized to fullscreen. The overall restriction in scaling cannot be corrected.
