Games don't fit in screen when launched in full screen mode (show only left-top quarter)

Games don't fit in screen when launched in full screen mode (show only left-top quarter) - Sporty fitness trainer and man lifting barbell

I'm trying to play games on a Windows 8.1 tablet with 1900x1200 resolution.

When I run some games which change resolution I see only their left-top quarter like game thinks that it's still 1900x1200 when it actually uses 800x600.

I tried to set a lower desktop resolution but it didn't affect what happens when I launch these games.

This happens in different games: "Starbound", "Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic", "Baldurs Gate II".

The tablet has an Intel HD video.

How to fix it?

How do I fix game not fitting the screen?

If you continue to have trouble playing your game in full screen mode, switch to windowed mode....
  • From your desktop, right-click and select Personalize.
  • Select Display Settings.
  • Adjust your screen resolution to 1024 x 768 and click Apply > OK.
  • Try playing your game again.


  • Why is my game not covering the whole screen?

    Go to the Options / Menu / Settings inside the game (not all games have this). Select Full-Screen On (or Off). This might resolve the issue. You will want to be sure that you have the first item set to 100% or whatever is recommended for your computer.
