Heck of a time to reinstall!?

Ok guys, alles ist gut jezt. Und I can now go aus mit mein Albatros und shot zie Englander, und zie Frenchmen in zie back!

Actually, this darn widescreen LCD takes some getting used to. I'm still after 9 months in CRT mode. I had to force a HDTV resolution of 1778 x 1080 or some oddball size, and also activate a screen sizing utility to get it work, and I could then get into the menus and go to workshop, and change the 1024 x 768 to the proper setting so I can get into the game. The new drivers for the video cards, and motherboard and sound setup keep me pluggin' away at close to 60fps pretty solidly. Just a couple little hiccups when new planes showed up in the middle of combat. But no big deal, it's still pretty darn smooth.

Also, the DPI was set at 125, and I did change it 96. Just to be on the safe side.

This is the monitor I use: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824254026

Great for games, and since I usually need to take my glasses off to read now, (near sighted) I can do any reading or typing and not worry about the print.
 
Glad to hear you are up and running. Nice monitor! :applause:
 
Thanks! The thing that sold me outside of the price for what you get, is the 3ms timing of the monitor. Most of the widescreens will vary between 5 and as high as 16 ms, so my bro's son who is a computer whiz recommended this one, and the picture is just great. Unlike the other widescreens I looked at, which had fuzzy looking images, this one is clear and very sharp in it's rendering comparatively.

I think that was probably your main problem. I recall that DPI at other than 96 causes problems (you cant get to the OFF menues, desktop icons jumble after the game etc.) as discussed in the FAQ
 
Actually the setting in Workshop was set to 1024 x 768, and I changed it to the Desktop min 1024 x 768, and all is fine. I just reset the DPI to 125 to test it, and it's fine.

But if it's been an issue for some in the past, it's still a valid option to try.
