windows Small screen

[The teacher]

So this is what happened to my just now:

 

I bought Cmmandos 2 (pretty old game) and I install it. Then while I am playing suddenly the screen becomes smaller. It is still centered but smaller with black borders around. But my surprise was when i try to play ET and I find out that the screen for Et is also smaller now. Like i dont care about Commandos but ET!!!

 

Plz, plz help me to solve this problem. I have a laptop with windows vista and not a computer freak at all so the instructions must be quite clear.

 

Thanks in advance for your help

Hey teacher,

I think thats because commandos 2 has smaller resolution settings

 

You can try

1) start et

press alt + enter

 

If this dont work

 

2)

check your resolution monitor--< right cliick mouse desktop / preferences (or nvidia)

 

start et

open console

/r_customwidth x

/r_customheight x

 

also check ur refresh rate

/r_displayrefresh x

 

/vid_restart

 

Goodluck

skully
