SO today , I loaded up my SC2, having not played it for about 2 days.

I turn it on to find the resolution the game plays in, is really zoomed in. it's not the way it used to be and I havent changed any settings or anything. It's the recommended resolution and stuff.

I don't know if people play SC2, but lets say it's so zoomed in 5 carriers takes up about half of my screen.


I'm not sure what info you need to know to help me,

My current Gcard is NVIDIA Geforce 8400. Anything else you need to know just ask.

What's an SC2? It helps if you don't assume that everyone knows the particular random initials you use.

OP: you might just be zoomed in, try scrolling out or using the - button to zoom out

Well seeing as this is a Guild Wars forum, not StarCraft, this is definitely the wrong place to ask that kind of question. You'd be better off asking on a StarCraft forum, seeing as they can maybe relate more to your issue.

No - this here is a repository of knowledge: We will answer questions on any tech subject.

Assuming, of course, we know the answer...

Any monitor switch between pc and monitor? Windows might be getting the wrong information about the monitor when you boot it with an inactive screen (cost me quite a bit of frustration with VtM:B)

Hmm, I found this on Spong ( http://spong.com/feature/10110179/Re...ngs-of-Liberty )

Zooming out and managing several groups of troops would break the dynamic of the game. While I understand it... well, it's still very annoying.
Maybe that's just the (crap) way it's meant to be?
