Screen sizing problem


Recommended Posts

Have tried all the advice i can find about the screen resolutions. to no avail.

Whatever i do i cannot get the game to run in anything but a small window at top of my screen.

Any Advice would be welcome.

Running on a 22" hd monitor with nvidia 9800gt graphic card.

Did you run the E&BConfig.exe as an admin?

Use the Net7Config.exe located in the same folder as E&B.exe, it *might* work but I wouldn't get your hopes too high, this game was designed long before that level of resolution was available, they didn't account for it.

I too use a 22", I have used the earth and beyond config located in "Programs-EA GAMES-Earth & Beyond-EBCONFIG" run the "E&BConfig" set your res to 1680 by 1050,32 bit, Bilinear, and in windowed mode - then run a performance test.

Thats all I had to do for XP, and on my windows 7 unit, I had to right click and run as Admin, and also set it for XP compatability as well, but for windows 7 I ran it in Full Screen mode instead of Windowed Mode.
Hope that helps.

I have the exact same problem and I have tried everything mentioned here I can find and even a few things I've learned throughteh years and nothing works, all I get is the postage stamp window, shame of it is I wanted to play E&B again really really badly.
