Is there a way to change the resolution in Starcraft and/or in its
expansions? I have a Laptop computer that supports up to 800x600 screen
resolution. When I run starcraft (in the main menu and in the game) I get
640x450 in the center of my screen and a black frame around it. I had the
same problem with some other games and when I changed the resolution to
800x600 (in the games - in my windows the resolution already is 800x600)
the problem was gone! So... is there a way (program, hack or something),
official or unofficial to do what I want? Thanx.

Didn't Overwind try out hi res Starcraft one time? Might be mistaking
but I remember someone did it. You need a custom MPQ file and a mod from
somewhere on the net.
