ok here is the situation:
I was playing renegade and then the comp froze...(yea it sucks but it isnt my computer/moniter) so i had to reboot. then when it started up ( i have xp home edition) i noticed the screen was messed up. I could only see like half of the screen ...like it was zoomed in....

any ideas? Question :sneaky:

Right click on desktop, select properties...then go to settings tab and make sure the correct resolution is set (Probably 1024*768 or 800*600)

There's a hole in the sky through which things can fly.

Very Happy

Toughest dilemmas require simple solutions.

I had a similar problem but it was with my graphic driver. Picture this: A 1024 * 768 display monitor trying to display a resolution of 320 * 240. (And that's without the full screen being taken up) Thank god for safe mode. You couldn't even navigate desktop properties, or get down to the programs stuff in add/remove programs.

Yeah I think yours was a second after mine or something, lol. Yeah it was lousy all right, the screen was like a cinematic (top and bottom blackened horizontal a bit) and the rest was this hugely stretched screen. Haha, the taskbar took up nearly half of it.
