problem w/ patch

chriskelly · 06-07-2006, 05:12 PM

I added the patch, and got this error....Graphics problem. pls make sure your res is set to 1024*768 and your windows taskbar is not set to always on top. My resolution is fine. I can't find my taskbar settings, but I do not believe they are set to always on top. anyone else have this problem?

I had a similar problem on my work computer with EHM when they switched monitors on me. This only happens if you are running in "windowed mode." Run full-screen and it should be fine. Hope this helps.

OK, please clarify this. First, what is your resolution set to, specifically? Second, if you right-click on your task bar and select Properties, which of the check-boxes are selected?

Also, what operating system is this?

Thanks!

Change OOTP to WIndows mode.

Or, just change the taskbar before and after... no biggie there..

how do I change OOTP to windows mode?

Riverdome · 06-08-2006, 11:42 AM

OOTP Preferences from the Game menu or from the Main screen.

Personally, I'm still not convinced, because I can run the game full screen in Windowed mode, with 1024x768 resolution and task bar fixed.

I haven't heard back from this person, so moving this over to closed/claimed fixed.

Thanks,

Steve
