Hey all, not a terrible techy question.

My monitor is 1440x900 but GW always starts in 1280x800. Any way to change this? Becasue it messes by with dual monitor.

Thanks.

Only way would be to play in Windowed mode to make full use of the resolution. Besides, GW is very friendly on resources anyway, I've been playing two accounts on dual 1366 monitors on my notebook.

If you are using dual monitors, is GW being played on the "primary" monitor?
Does Windows recognize the monitor properly - that is, does it list the actual name of the monitor, or does it just say "generic PnP"?

Anyway, this sort of problem is usually the result of Windows not properly recognizing the monitor and therefore, GW doesn't know that the monitor can do 1440x900.

It's being played on the primary monitor, which the dispay doesn't have listed as generic PnP.

I was wondering if there was something you could add to the shortcut line that might change it.
