Game window does not float

Post by Petermf »

Hi

On a win10 pc, regardless of the resolution setting chosen,the game window is anchored to the top left of my Dell widescreen monitor. Is it possible to change this so that I can move the window to where I want it?

Thanks in advance

with a wild guess, alter your DPI, as without a report, it is only guess work i'm sorry to say

How to get a DxDiag report file:

1. Click on "START" (on Windows 8 press “Windows key” and the “R” key at the same time)
2. Click "run" (skip this step on Windows 8 )
3. Type in "dxdiag" and click "OK"
4. Check through the tabs and perform all tests
5. Click "Save all Information..." and save the text file to a location of your choice

We prefer that DxDiag files be posted as message attachments (zip) rather than pasted into the body of the post.

Also, have you updated the game with the last patch?
If not please download it from the link below:
http://ftp.us.matrixgames.com/pub/Scour ... e-v101.zip
Once you have downloaded the file please unzip it. Run the extracted file to update the game.

Hi

Thanks for the suggestion. Win7 was already selected, but I did try the DPI and admin settings, nothing had any effect, the game window is still anchored to the top left of my screen as below. The map is also doing the same, but this might be correct for all I can tell at present?
