I've just switched to a very old machine with a 1600 x 900 display. As an added complication I'm running the game using the Wine compatibility program on Linux. The Nvidia drivers will not let me use 1366 x 768 even though the monitor is happy with it, so there are no widescreen mods that run properly.
At the moment I'm using 1600x900 in d3d9.ini to run a 1366x768 GUI mod. This causes all the 2D graphics to sit in the bottom left corner whilst the 3d stuff extends underneath it to the edge of the display. Looks bizarre, but works. You've inspired me to try 1024x768 and no widescreen. I'm going to try Fifi's NYGM hardcore without widescreen, I'll tell you how I get on.
