Hi,

My copy Sleeping Dogs won't stick to fullscreen when I try using the Nvidia control panel Adjust Desktop Size and Position, though when I close it I can run the game fullscreen, but there are parts of the screen out of view. My monitor can go up to 1080p, is a 22" LGTV, it works fine with others games but I feel like the program Sleeping Dogs keeps windowing when the control panel tries to resize the program to fit the TV.

Can anyone help me with this?

Try pressing Alt+Enter when you get into the game.

That doesn't work, it just resets itself to windowed mode.

1. On NVIDIA Control Panel goto ADJUST DESKTOP SIZE AND POSITION. Mine is set to Aspect Ratio and that has worked for me. If it doesn't work then pick the second tab at the top called SIZE. The first option says "Help me find the right settings on my Display" Read the info on that.
2. Check Control Panel Display options and double check resolution settings.
3. Check in game and make sure its setup for the exact resolution numbers that were in Control Panel. 1920x1080 and aspect ratio 16:9 for 1080p

Alt+Enter will switch it between full screen and windowed mode. A windowed screen will go full, and vice versa. I would assume that pressing it again puts it back to where it overflows over the sides of the screen. You could try this

That forces a borderless windowed mode for games you chose

For me exiting team viewer solved the problem

I second this advice. As silly as it sounds, and I will be researching if there's a way these two programs can co-exist, this actually works.

It also makes sense that so many people aren't complaining about this problem...they're not using TeamViewer.
