Hey guys Apologies if this has already been asked countless times before, but it's annoying the hell out of me. I recently updated my laptop from Vista to Windows 7 and it's completely wrecked the display settings. After mucking around with the shortcut target I've managed to make it widescreen however the whole display has become squashed in.. SC4 worked perfectly fine with Vista, but 7 has been a frustrating mess. Can this be fixed?, and how?... I took a screenshot, though it doesn't really show the problem well. System - Windows 7 Home Premium Processor - Intel Core Duo 2.10GHz Display -ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series Resolution - 1366 x 768 Version - Sim City 4 Deluxe (Origin) Cheers, P.S First time poster, long time lurker!

Thanks guys for your replies. I can live with the smaller menu. Though the actual game display has become more narrow despite using all different resolution settings, including the standard SC4 settings. Plus the only resolution I've found to make it widescreen is my actual screen resolution 1366 x 768 (16:9), everything else goes to box size. However the picture becomes grainy and again narrow. I've tried playing around with the Compatibility mode changing it to XP and Vista with no luck. All I want to do is play the game in widescreen and not have the game display narrowed nor grainy. It was perfectly fine in Vista, but not Windows 7 :/ Is there a patch for Windows 7 or anything?
