The oddest thing happened to Baldur's Gate. It was running perfectly fine: Normally, whenever I opened the game, it would automatically play in full-screen mode.
When I was loading the game up this morning, I accidentally clicked on the desktop while it was starting. It opened in a maximized window, as per usual. Instead of the game taking up the whole screen, however, it appeared as a little window in the middle of a black field.
I suppose this has to do with BG's native resolution being 640x800. I've tried changing compatibility settings in Windows 7, but I get the exact same result. I've tried running it in a window, where the game screen is the same size, and then expanding it with Alt+Enter, but that doesn't work, either. I've tried changing the BG config file, but my settings change back to the defaults when I start the game. I of course also tried changing the graphics options from the in-game menu.
What else can I try?
Thanks!
