Something Is Off Key

[Guest]

Just recently I noticed that some of my windows in XP are offset and in some
games. They appear larger than the resolution I have set and half of the
window is unable to be veiwed because it is passed the edge of the screen and
you can't scroll over. You can't even see the controls. (I hope that I am
explaining this clear enough for you to understand.)
Picture a square-3x3, you can see the entire square, now zoom in close
enough to where you only see half of that square on you screen. That's what I
mean. Only certain boxes do this not all. How can I fix this?
My card does support all resolutions. All drivers are updated. This I think
is something more than just the video card res.. The option boxes in these
particular windows are even out of place. They are overlapping the windows
itself and are in places they should not be.

I'm not really sure what you mean, however, the first
part your wrote made more sense to me than the rest of it.

I would un-install your driver and then re-install it. If
that doesn't work, download Driver Cleaner from
http://www.drivercleaner.net/dc.htm and run that.

However, I would make a back up (clone) of your HD before
doing that. I used it before and it worked, but it makes
me nervous especially when I had it clean the driver.cab
file, it takes awhile. I guess I'm more on the paranoid
side. Follow the directions closely, I'd even print them
out.

If that doesn't work, I would un-install the driver and
try an older one.
