Screen Resolution Issues in D3

Hi all, thanks again in advance for any help!

I just reformatted/reinstalled XP Home (SP2), installed D3, and for the most part it's humming right along. However, I'm also having a strange problem where the resolution doesn't always switch properly between the menus and the gameplay. For example, when I switch from the map back to the game, I suddenly see only the upper-left corner of the game screen (the top left 640x480), with the rest of the screen being my normal windows desktop.

System specs:
Athlon XP 2800+
512 MB DDR400 RAM
Gainward GeForce 3 Ti200 (running version 61.77)
XP Home SP2

Any ideas?

Thanks again,
--Jynx

Seems to be a problem with Nvidia's display driver, happens in all versions past release 5 I think.

BTW, 66.93 is out.

You can just change the resolution manually by hitting F2, pick the resolution you want, and go from there.
