    I've sifted thru a few hundred Thread titles in Software and Games about how to change resolution back, but haven't figured this out. This one seemed pertinent but I can't make heads nor tails of it.

    Problem: downloaded and installed "Princess Bride Game" and it works fairly well, but when I exit, the screen rez remains set to 1024x 768 instead of my usual, preferred 1280 x 768. I can't figure out how to make it tell my computer to go back to the normal size. I can't find a way to change the display settings to 1280 when I right-click the icon.

    The game site supposedly has tech support, but it freezes every time I try to register, so that I can't access the support chat.

    I don't know what info is pertinent: I have a Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop with Win XP (SP2) and I think this is the video card (?) ATI mobility radeon 9600 Pro Turbo.

    I suppose we can just switch the settings after playing every time, but it seems we should be able to make it revert to the normal display by itself.
