games running in the wrong resolution size
For some reason when i open an of my games they start up in the wrong size. There's about and inch and a half of black space on the left side of my screen and the window extends beyond the right side of my screen. I've looked through all the settings and properties and cannot figure out how to fix this problem. My screen size is 1600x900. Could really use some help.

Daft question, have you tried hitting the "auto-adjust" button on your monitor?

Yea cause I never thought of that. I tried both the auto-adjust and adjusting it manually with no luck.

Try these options:

Right click the game ->Advanced options -> set launch options ->

-w <width> -h <height>

Ok -> Close -> Launch Game Now

Didn't work for me, in fact, the game wouldn't even open after setting the height and width.
