Started PoE II and the default screen is so large I cannot see any buttons to interact with except the DLC link. I tried adjusting my desktop resolution (1600x900 used normally) up and down and most different resolutions only show my desktop when the game launches and the game cannot be brought up to be displayed even though it has a button on the bottom start bar. I see the in game mouse and hear music but the game screen cannot be seen. Any resolutions that do show the screen are similar to this and only show a tiny fraction of what I suppose is the games launch screen.

I tried a complete re-download and reinstall, no luck, same issues occur. Any help here is appreciated.

My system is an Intel Core i7-5820K CPU @ 3.30GHz 3.30 GHz
16 GB RAM
Win 7 pro 64 bit

Graphics card is Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 Ti

Drivers are up to date.

The attachment is a screenshot of what I see when the game launches, it hasn't been cropped or anything, this is an unedited print screen of what I see. If I click the link it takes me to a web page but other than that I cannot interact with what I see on screen and cannot move the image around to other areas of the screen.

This box runs plenty of other games without any issues at all like Witcher 3, PoE 1, Battletech etc. So I don't think this is an issue with my box.

I figured out a work around. I went into the properties of the launch icon shortcut and changed the 'run' pull down menu from normal window to minimized. Once the game had launched and I heard music I clicked the icon on the start bar and the game opened and the screen auto-adjusted so I could see the entire launch screen.

I then went into options and set the game to run full screen mode and now it launches properly even when I set the shortcut back to normal window. So this has something to do with the game launching in windowed mode I think.
