Hopefully someone here can answer this question. I have a Mac IIfx with a RasterOps 8XL card hooked up to a 14" Apple monitor. Everything looks fine, but I've noticed that System 7 is being displayed at a very high resolution (everything is kind of small looking). This isn't a problem for me, but when I go to try and play an old System 6 game it's displayed in a small window (works just fine though). I tried this with Shufflepuck Cafe, Social Climber, and Gunshy. They all run full screen on my SE/30 but windowed on my IIfx.

I assume this is due to the screen being set to a higher resolution and not some odd incompatibility. If, so what resolution should I set the IIfx to? What video card is recommended? The RasterOps 8XL came with the system, but alternatives seem to be fairly cheap to buy.
