Virtual Villagers 5 Screen Problem

The game screen is too deep for my screen and goes way below my task bar and its not on the full screen option. Is there a way to fix this please?

Unlike the other Virtual Villager games, VV5 requires a display setting/resolution of 1024 x 768 or larger. Try checking your settings to see that they're properly set to run the game.

This answer in our Support FAQ covers MissKathy's answer above and adds a bit more:

The game's display size is 1024x768 pixels, so if you are attempting to run it on a display with a resolution that is less than that (such as 640x480), the game will not fit. If your display resolution is exactly 1024x768, you may need to try changing the setting of fullscreen mode (on the Options screen).

To check and/or change your display resolution for Windows XP, 98 or ME, right-click on an empty area of the desktop and select properties from the popup menu, then click the Settings tab.

For Windows Vista, right-click on an empty area of the desktop and select personalize from the popup menu, then click on Display Settings at the bottom of the list. The current screen resolution is displayed and may be adjusted by moving the slider.

For Windows 7, right-click on an empty area of the desktop and select Screen resolution from the popup menu, then set your screen resolution.

Thank you both for this. I will do that when I go on to start the game properly

my screen is 1600x900 and I still can't play it. I can't get to the menu or display buttons. I tried it at 1024x768 and that didn't work.

Ok thank you. I hope we can resolve it as I have it on my ipad too and really enjoy the game, like I do the others.
