Quake 2 and VISTA

Post by Whiskey 7 »

Hello all :D

Just installed my Quake 4 (SPECIAL EDITION DVD) I've had laying about for ages.

I had a HDD crash some months ago and sadly never re-installed many games... oh well..

Quick question. On the DVD for Quake 4 came a (YES) Quake 2 (free) install.

Well I installed and it only comes up in a very small screen in VISTA. I have tried all but to no joy :tear:

I did a quick search here at Q3W too but can't find a solution.

Yes I could ask in T & T ... but anyone assist here as I'd be most grateful. I need to see :q2: in all its glory again.

I don't understand your question. Is Q2 running in a windowed screen?

Yes, sorry duffman91 it is in a very small windowed screen but I can't seen to drag (to enlarge) or enlarge it to full screen.

Any assist welcome :D

Also, in the game video options or your .cfg file, you should be able to set the resolution.

In the video settings there should be a fullscreen option.

Deathshroud seems to think "fashionably late" applies to more than just dinner parties. :dork:
