Title: Full screen?
Post by Zap on 01/26/04 at 18:06:43

Is there anyway to play NightMist on full screen ( Meaning no Start Bar there ) I only need this because my screen only lets me see half of the NM screen. So I can't play. :)

Thanks.

Increase your screen resolution

I had to format my comp, so basically all my drivers are gone, which means I aint got the 800 x 600 screen resolution, nor do I know where to get it.

Get into device manager then go to Display Adapters, then it should say in there.

look on google for drivers. just type "SiS 530 Drivers" (including quotes) in google and it should find some stuff.

I tried some websites, downloaded the file to install the driver, installed it, changed my resolution to 800 x 600. Had to restart computer for new settings to take place. Comp crashed trying to load up. Did that 3 times. Managed to get Comp working, resolution didn't change.

Any ideas?

and technically correct, but there are chipset, vga, sound and possibly on board networking that would come under the same group.

Had a look for a VGA driver. found a few, tried them all, made no difference. You guys know a place to find one? ( I'm hopeless with these things. ;) )
