Hi,

I'm posting this for my friend. Here's the deal. He was playing the DoW Open Beta just fine up until about 2 days ago. Since then, whenever he starts the game, it runs as a window. We can't figure out how to maximize it to full-screen. We tried ALT-TAB, ALT-ESC, setting Desktop and Ingame resolutions/color depths the same, downloading newest nVidia drivers, etc.

It started happening out of the blue, before patch 1.4 came out (he even downloaded it while in windowed-mode to see if it would fix the problem).

We have no idea what the problem is. The game is basically unplayable while running as a window, and we don't know how to make it full-screen again!

He has a P4, 512m, and FX5200.

Please help!

Doug

Find screenwindowed and make the following change ... it's probly been set back to 1 on accident screenwindowed=0
