ElderShaman Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Ok so I have an Asus Republic of Gamers Laptop with a Nvidia Geforce GTX 965M and i am able to play that game on the maximum settings with my screen resolution at 1920x1080 with no problems. The problem is I have an Asus Republic of Gamers Desktop with Nvidis Geforce GTX 970 and I will log in to the launcher with my screen resolution at 1920x1080 and after a few secounds after hitting play on the launcher my screen goes black, and then my screen resolution jumps from 1920x1080 to 800x600 and the game is running BUT not visible as if it has been minimized. I tried to un-minimize but the only way i could find to get the resoultion back to 1920x1080 is to force close the game. any idea why its doing this on my desktop and not my laptop? and is there anyway to "fix" it? thanks in advance for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElderShaman Posted December 5, 2016 Author Share Posted December 5, 2016 ok just tried that it broke out of the 800x600 resolution and went back to 1920x1080. Which as given me further insight as to what is going on. apparently the reason for the switch in resolution and the game no working/displaying correctly is because it will immediately after launch Stop responding. forcing me to shut the game down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwenBrooks Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) So when in window mode it loads ok now ? If so go back and reset the resolution to 1920 x 1080 and see if it now behaves ? If still issues getting ingame check the below Press the [Windows] Key + [R] at the same time, Copy the following in to the text box and press ok %localappdata%\swtor\swtor\settings Open the client_settings.ini file in notepad and check what the resolution reported for Native Height Native Width Height Width make sure they (all 4) all report correctly Edited December 5, 2016 by OwenBrooks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
