Major Problem Need Help!!!

Try to edit the resolution manually in main.cfg file. Go to the video part and enter the resolution you need to display the game correctly. I have not personally tried this but I found this on the Ubisoft Forum.

My Documents\SH4\data\cfg\main.cfg

[VIDEO]
Resolution=1440,900,75,22
DynamicShadows=Yes
FullScreen=Yes
Synchronized=Yes
TextureResolutionHigh=Yes

No this is the only game that has this issue.
Thanks! I've been toying around with all that but it hasn't worked...
Something seems to be overriding those files though because even leaving them blank changes nothing.

Can you change the config file so SH4 runs in windowed mode? Then you can try to resize the window and then adjust the resolution within the game.

There must be yet another copy of SH4 floating around somewhere that's somehow conflicting with this version. Because even deleting that file doesn't change anything.

Quite the mystery.

are you using an external display with your laptop? If so, try starting the game and then unplugging it and reconnecting it.

It worked!!!!!

I live at a beach resort so I had to get into the office to steel a monitor. But I hooked it up and it rescaled!
Thanks Guys!
