Default Little Help, Please

Alright. I forgot I accidentally set my display settings too high one day. It was okay if it wasn't maximized... but I accidentally maximized it. Now my GW is running the graphics out of the scan range. Thus, I cannot click the little square to make it just a window again.

Is there a shortcut to un-maximize it, or am I boned? v,v

PS - I forgot what I did before to fix it.

That shouldn't happen unless you don't have the correct Moniter driver installed (not the video card). It limits the mointer screen sized and refresh rate to what the moniter is suppose to be. Windows like to use the "generic" driver if your specific mointer driver is not loaded.

See if you can update your mointer driver and then run gw. Or if you can get GW up and get to the options screen before you login in and change it in the settings there.

I don't have the correct monitor driver installed, because I have a crappy integrated graphics card. I do not want to tamper with it, and then have further problems.

The hotkey to toggle between sized and maximized windows for most Windows apps is ALT-Enter. It works for GW too.

Sorry, not 'maximized'. Alt-Enter is to toggle Fullscreen.
