Side-screens like inventory retain their original size, but take up half the screen with a tiled background (they originally took up half a 640×480 screen without needing any tiled background).

The HUD keeps its original size, with the life/mana spheres anchored to the corners, and the stamina and potions anchored to the bottom-center. And the map is pixel based.

FMVs run at 640×480, but are hard-letterboxed to a theatrical 2.20:1. This means windowboxing on wide monitors.
