Hit up http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/ and click the "Master Game List" on the left side of the page if the game doesnt support widescreen res. they will teach you how to make the game display in a widescreen res.

Yes, just got into CS:S and change the video resolution. Resolutions that your monitor can support will be displayed. (I.e. if I make my 2 monitors display in one massive, 2560x1024 monitor, CS:S will allow that, althogh it is impractical.)
