Didn't fix it :(

Have you tried just going into the video config menu to set the resolution to your native screen?

[Weatheredeye]

"If your character/game looks "wide," go into Configure > Video > User Interface and make sure your Aspect Ratio is properly set. 1600x900 and 1920x1080 are 16:9 resolutions, for example."

There is a bug in the OVERAL QUALTIY setting under video settings. Never touch that setting. If you do just follow the steps above again

Yes.

Well, if the forum posts and video don't help you; just hit Alt+Enter after booting to enter windowed mode. May have to press the combo twice. Then, just stretch the window to the size you like.

If you don't know what size your screen is, right click your desktop in an empty area, select display/Screen resolution.

Change those to your screen size and set

So
Render_W=1280 winDefH=600 Render_H=900 winDefW=800; ALL THESE to MY SCREEN RES?


And winX=16 winY=32 To 50?

Then save it, then right click on the .CFG and set to 'read only'. Remeber, if you want to edit the file again, and right after the next update; set it back to 'read/write'.

Yes, and yes. Make sure Dayz isn't running.

I dont understand about read only, how does this affect DayZ?
