I notice that when I increase the resolution in the settings, it doesn't actually change. The resolution during the game looks the same. Yes, the setting is saved and yes I'm restarting the game like it says to. Is there some max setting that it will support for my card or something (6800 GS)

A -max- resolution for your 6800? Not that I'm aware of, at least not one that would stop you from changing resolutions for normal circumstances.

What is the resolution you are viewing at now? Can you go DOWN from that resolution? Can you see 640x480? 800x600? 1024? 1600?

When you max out, maybe it is a monitor issue? Do you have an LCD that only goes so high on resolution?

-Shrugs- May or may not be helpful, but that's my advice to get looking in the right direction. As always, make sure you have the newest drivers and such, too.

I was doing some research... looks like I have to run it in windowed mode to be able to set resolutions. Otherwise it runs it at 1024x768

I have it set at 1154xwhatever (I always forget what goes with 1154). It doesn't look any different than 1024.768.

How did you come to that conclusion? Is it related to your monitor? I run it full screen and can change the resolution all over the place.

You're not using an S-Video cable to play are you?
