So, prefs.ini hackery didn't work. I'm downgrading the drivers from the Omega drivers that I have to the *shudder* 440go drivers from the Dell website. They're from 2003, though. I found the debug log, so here's the contents: Debug Message: Version v1.0X.2 last updated on: Tue Mar 7 15:02:59 2006 Debug Message: Could not find a TGN Serial No. Debug Message: *********DXDiag info follows.********* System Info Time:
Thanks for looking at this, gang. Its a laptop (Dell C840). There are no buttons to adjust the monitor. The normal desktop resolution is 1600x1200x32bpp. I'm going to try poking at the prefs.ini file now. In the meantime, how do I supply debug info?
I just installed GalCiv2 and find that I cannot play it. Screen elements are all in the wrong places and the game "window" (perhaps canvas is a better word: it happens in a window and full screen) is stretched over an area twice as wide as my screen. The Stardock logo swirl at startup is centered on the right edge of my monitor, with half of it disappearing in the ether. This could be my fault. The machine in question is a Dell Latitude C840
