Help screen

Ive just got a new computer and when i first loaded up my computer my screen resolution was very strange, i had 4 different sections of the home screen..but i changed resolution and its fine now, except its slighly blurry and small, i would like to change it so i can get it less blurry but it will fuck up...

However when i open ET it does the same problem even though ive changed custom hight etc this is what it looks like when i open ET:

done that also my config wont save as a cfg file only as a text document, u know how to fix that?
Parent
save as tekno.cfg ?
Parent
sorted out the config, still the same, you know when you can link up say 4 monitors to the same computer and you can get ur mouse to run across all the screens, its like that but mini and can only see quaters of the screen.
Parent
already reinstalled ur gfx card drivers?
Parent
yeah mate, fuck noes what the problem is....very annoying :(
Parent
copy the text in the file, open WordPad, paste, save as tekno.cfg
Parent

Parent

Parent

update drivers? displayrefresh?
brilliant video
uninstall the drivers completely before installing them again, then maybe reinstall et, check your gfx settings everywhere in windows idk...
what os?
tekno!!! nice pic :DDDDDDDDD

*edit*

what res are u using? what res were u using when the problem happened?

open ur cfg, put r_mode x (x = depends on the res u chose in ur OS)

seta r_mode "5" 1024x768
seta r_mode "6" 1152x864
seta r_mode "7" 1280x1024
seta r_mode "8" 1600x1200
hahaha i cant print screen though, it just comes up grey lol yeah i installed the new drivers for this pc, updated :)

Parent

http://img140.imageshack.us/i/untitldsdsded.png/ the res im using is the highlighted one atm but its kinda blurry not amazingly loads but still kinda shit

in that picture you see the below resolutions not under hd some of them work and others dont i think it was the native one that doesnt work and goes all funny

r_customheight 1600
r_customwidth 900
r_mode -1
and i havent got r_fullscreen :)
Parent
ok, firstly:

ure setting the height and the width the opposite way :P

so, do the following:

ET_

r_mode 7
r_customwidth 0
r_customheight 0
r_fullscreen 0

PC desktop:

choose 1280 x 1024(through windows, not nivida panel). Load ET. IF it looks okish, close ET and change desktop res to-> 1440(native). Also make sure u got dual monitor n stuff disabled.
Parent
it worked i can see all of ET however it didnt open in fullscreen, when i did that it just was like multiscreen again

talk to me on IRC im going out to smoke a few zoots, so ill contact you when im back?

thanks for all this help anyway :)
