I changed my monitor, now i have a Lg 16:9 full hd monitor 23 inches. The problem is that i found harder to play in 16:9 how i could switch this point of view to a square one? I would play fullscreen of course. Thank you!

not exactly genesis - you can't do it the way he described.
So what exactly you want to do? only change xp_aspectratio?

Thank you for the answers. Actually i'm playing on a 16:9 monitor so what i see on the screen is a rectangle more larger than high. I would play maintaining the same height but less broad; not quite a square but something similar; i think i'll gonna have some black stripes vertically on both sides but i'm okay with that! I excuse myself if i'm not able to be more explicative. I also tried xp_aspectratio but nothing changed; thank you for your attention
