Problem w/ Games - image always appears too large or doesn't fit screen

J

Jensuni

With about 50% of the games I install, the image or play area is to
large and occasionally too small for the screen.
I have gone to the Control Panel, Display, Settings and tried to reduc
the size of the desktop on Screen Resolution but this doesn't wor
consistently. Now I find each time I start up the computer - sometime
the icons are large and sometimes small - why does this keep switchin
and why can't I view all of the games?

Thanks for any asistance,

Jensun

Most every Windows game have their very own setting section for the
resolution. You need to access each game set up options so as to set
the resolution. You need to do this for most every game (usual
exceptions are expansion or add-on packs.)

In each screen resolution, press the Automatic Adjust button to resize
for that resolution.

Thanks for your help and I hate to be a dummy but where does one find
each games individual set-up options??

Thanks.

Thanks.

Read the game "install" manuals
Check with the game's publisher's support web sites
