Resolution Issue

I don't have the best vision and was wondering if this game can be played
at 800x600 or if there is a utility that could help with this resolution?[X(]

Afraid not... Many others have commented on this problem, but it's unfortunately not possible to change resolution.

Uncommon Valor can be played at 800 x 600 resolution.

I haven't tried this and it's certainly not an idela solution but have you tried playing in windowed mode and using the microsoft magnifier which can be found in the Start > Accessability menu.

Alternatively how about a bigger monitor. I have just got a 19" monitor at work and witt looks great on it.

Thx guys for the feedback. I will take a look at the windowed mode.
I will also take a look at uncomon Valor. I have a 17" crt and maybe I should be thinking about a 19 or 21. But appreciate the kind feedback
and will find a way to work this out.
thx

I was having a similar problem. Long hours of WIP was giving me a headache from eye strain. Got a 21" monitor off Ebay for $60. End of problem.
