Here's my problem, sorry, im not very good at explaining it.
After installing several different games on my computer, I've had some kind of video problem or something. When I try to play the game, it displays the game in 4 different columns on the screeen, each tall and skinny.
It did this on the following games:
-Civ III
-AOE III
-Mafia
I'm not sure what kind of problem this is, because other games work fine. If you understand my problem the way I explained it, please help me.
thx
I can be e-mailed at nicholai_2009@yahoo.com

ok, ive found out.
it is just a simple resolution problem.
i can fix that with Mafia, but i still cannot get Civ III or AOE III running properly. can you help me with that?

This might work,

Step 1: Go onto your "Desktop" and while your there click on the AOE III Icon.
Step 2: Right click on it and select the "Properties" Selection.
Step 3: There should be a "resolution" tab/option on there.
Step 4: Select the Resolution you desire i recommend 800 x 600 For AOE III
Step 5: Enjoy.


If that does not work add the following to the Target line in properties.

"-Windowed" That should set it to windowed mode which "Should" make it display in one large picture.
