Does the game fill the screen? The version by another maker that I have does not. My resolution is 1366X758 on a lap top.

Yes, it fills the entire screen. It's resolution is 1920x1080. This is one of my all-time favorite computer games. I run Windows 8 and have a 26" monitor.

Hi, Ronald. The game won't open at all on my laptop computer so don't know whether it would fill the screen. I do have an older version installed on my desktop and it does fill the entire screen (resolution 1920 x 1080).Best regards,Sue Robertson

No! It does not fill the screen, and they make it as difficult Each time you want to play, that to go Thur it all , it's not worth it.From now on I will only buy pop cap games!

My resolution is 3840 x 2160 on a 28" Ultra High Definition monitor and I can play all games I have tried at this resolution. I am unsure about 5760 x 1080 as my monitor is not capable of that setting. It seems to be an unusual setting with the video ratio. I have no problem whatsoever at my listed resolution and it beats having to go sli. From what I understand there was a period of time where the drivers were not available for sli at high resolution. Not sure if that is still true or not.

You have two issues here. The first is the physical size of your screen and second is the resolution of 720p. Sometimes bigger isn't better.

My Picture setting is STANDARD... Screen Size is 100%...Aspect is set to NORMAL. Try these setting and let me know the results please...

E. Beesley, I managed to register on the website rather than using the software as I have the same issue. Using a netbook the full screen will not display, meaning you cannot see the 'agree or proceed' or whatever it may be! There are still things I've not managed to see and we therefore cannot access. I'm extremely disappointed. Working scrollbars are surely not too much to expect?

I played elder scrolls 4 oblivion on here at fullthrottle in full resolution for very close to 3 hrs b4 it went out. I had it on the Power4Gear Entertainment setting. When i switched it to Power4Gear Battery Saving the game didnt look that much different(screen was a little dimmer), keyboard didnt light up etc, and it played great. I turned the game off afterabout 3hrs 45 min and there was over 30 % of battery life left.All in all it seems to be above average(especially for how beastly this thing is) i still dont know an exact time tho lol im with you guys i almost didnt get this laptop because the battery life wasnt listed but im glad i did.

It's a very old game and just doesn't want to work with newer computers. You might try compatibility mode as suggested by B Slater, but don't hold your breath. Sorry.

Its and awesome game and can be even better with the right specification on a computer. Make sure you have a good graphics card such as Nvidia or AMD, even thought the standard will work, the detail will look better if you buy a graphics card. Also it helps reduce lag during a game.

I bought it a long time ago and it didn't run on mine, either. But I recently saw it on Steam for a ridiculously low price, downloaded it and had no problems whatsoever. And I am still on Windows 7. Maybe it is something else with your system? Their support is pretty good. I think it lists the requirements on the game's page. I am just about to finish the second one...and my computer crashed. I hope I can fix it but if I have to play the second one from the top, I will. Both are great. The second is even better than the first.

Normally no, but there is a work around that I found just by Googling for solutions. I can now play it on Windows 8, but I have to go into the file folder and click on a particular icon. It will then play in a smaller window. It does not fill up the entire screen. Otherwise it works.

I had that game installed on Win XP and it worked perfectly :) , now im on Win 7 x64 and i dont see any problem.

you have to adjust the screen resolution. I don't know how to do it, but look it up online.

I have windows 8.1 and the game dosent work for me. However, I dont know if this problem is specific to me or all 8.1 users have it. Hope this helps!

It doesn't really allow for a full screen image. The image it draws from the source is contained within a smaller box that is surrounded by "options" you can use for editing your video. That is if you are using the supplied software. There is a noticeable lag time that I think would ruin any gaming play.

You may be viewing in the full-screen mode which distorts things. Try using a different setting like actual size I believe.

It depends of the game. I was able to play Grid 2 at medium graphical detail at 1920x1080 full screen only with HD integrated graphics.. and was just smooth.

I'm not sure, check the specifications of the game and compare them with the laptop.
