I was just wondering what to do about this problem. i167.photobucket.com/albu...ngsWTF.jpg As you can see from the picture, my default viewport is cut in half at least, and I am unable to increase its size, because of the grey background that is covering it all up. Please, please, if you know what the problem is, let me know! Thanks, Merc

If I get a chance I might look at the Compiler settings, possibly they could be adjusted so that the Screen Pixel Dimensions match properly.

I am running .99 the display freezes up at times. I will have to check the drivers for the video card. The new machine is a quad core also so that could be part fo the problem.

I was also having problems with another game that i was trying to run, but it kept crashing because the graphics card would just stop working. I guess ill have to try to find an update for it, but to my knowledge it was up to date as of 1-2 months ago. Thanks anyways, ~Merc

In the "Compatibility" Tab, set it to run in compatibility mode for windows xp, and check the box that says, "turn of desktop composition". Wings will now run without any problem, but ONLY in a fully maximized state. If it still doesnt work, trying all of the above as well as running it as admin. Thanks, Merc
