Fullscreen Resolution Bug Help

Hey Everyone,

I've just resubbed to COH after a long absence. In the meantime, I bought a brand new laptop that should have no problem running the game whatsoever (even with the upcoming Ultra Mode updates).

That said, I'm having a weird fullscreen resolution glitch I can't seem to fix.

When the client loads in fullscreen mode, I can only seem to see a portion of the screen. It's very off-centre. Even when I used Regedit to force the client resolution to my native desktop res (1920x1200) I can still only see and click on a portion of the screen.

I have been able to log into the game fine by forcing windowed mode, but I'd very much prefer to play in fullscreen.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

It's a Dell XPS laptop, with Win7, ATI Mobility Radeon 4670 and an i7 Intel processor.

I'll paste my DXdiag results below....

Ok, so I kind of figured out the problem.

It wasn't the drivers... downloaded and installed the latest version, with no change.

But I tried going into the 'Personalize' Win7 settings... and changed my display size from 150% to 125%..... this seemed to fix it.

Now CoH works in fullscreen... but my desktop icons, etc, are much smaller..... argh
