    Default Half of the screen is "cut off"

    Hey folks

    I've acquired myself the wonderful rome game, but I havent been able to play t bc of 2 problems:

    1. The right half of the screen seems to be pushed off the screen, so that only half of all the bars and menus are visible - what to do?

    2. After I've installed the patch, the game becomes unable to play - it says it cant locate the cd. Is there any specific way you should install the patch?

    Thanks

    wow incredible coincidince!

    after having uninstalled RTW about 6 months ago,i decided with the imminent approach of MTW2 to install the game to have another bash,

    i installed it today(a few hours ago actually) i was eagerly waiting to jump in to the fray,but alas i found the same problem as you,the entire right side was cut off almost as if it was operating on a very low resolution.It has the appearence as if the screen is 'stretched'.

    i am attepmting to install the 1.2 patch,but might not if as you say,makes the game unplayable.

    i had some type of uber virus about a month back and the hardrive was replaced by a local company in my town,but ever since they brought it back my PC hasnt been quite right

    can anyone help?............................please!

    you might want to go into your preferences text file (you will need to open up your program files for rtw) and I think there is a resolution option there. Perhaps try setting it back to something like 1024 x 768 (if its changed). Not sure if that will do anything, but worth a shot

    !! SOLUTION !! :

    You just have to turn off your anti-aliasing in the game - atleast it works for me

    the half the screen is not visble problem comes from anti-aliaseing turn it off and your screen should be fine as for your patch problem try installing 1.3 and 1.5 and see if you still have the problem.
