Windows XP/Vista/7 Very weird full screen problem

    So... I've been playing in windowed mode because I have to. I don't want to, but I have to because my fullscreen mode has the following characteristics=

    The actual game itself is the same size as windowed mode, placed in the middle of the screen, surrounded in black. I would post a screenshot, but I am unable to for some reason. But to clarify, there is black on top, bottom, and both sides. and then the little bitty game in the middle. So that's one thing.

    The other thing.... when I try to play the game like that, in full screen, there is lag. Not internet lag, but keyboard lag. For example, I press and hold an arrow key to walk, let go, and my character just keeps moving for a good few seconds.

    Info=
    Win7 Ultimate
    GPU=ATI Radeon x1200 Series (laptop graphics)
    CPU= AMD Athlon 64 Bit Duel Core TK-55 (1.8ghz)
    Screen= laptop screen
    RAM= only 2 gigs :<

    Graphics driver is completely updated and appropriate


    Oh, and I tried running Legends on my girlfriend's laptop, which is literally identical. They were bought as a pair. Same problem XD

    So... any ideas lol I don't even know where to start, but I'm kinda sick of windowed mode on this tiny as screen.

    Have you tried pressing ALT+ENTER when the game launches? Also, since you use Windows 7, you won't have to use compatibility options in the executable properties, so make sure everything is default.

    The only other thing I can think of is graphic scaling options with your GPU options. Go into your GPU Controls, and disable anything related to graphic scaling.

    this happened me on windows 10 is because can't auto itself to 800x600 full screen and i try to pass alt and enter so i download hotkey resolution changer (or HRC for short) so i can go to 800x600 full screen but i have to load HRC first. sorry to says this but this is a windows problem not the game you have to find other way to fix your keyboard lag.

    Good input, but my graphics control panel doesn't have graphic scaling options. But I'm carefully tinkering with the options that I do have, I'll update if I figure anything out.
    When I set my screen to 800X600, it just makes my desktop have the same effect as the game... focused on the center of the screen. Which is also weird. Isn't it supposed to just stretch everything edge to edge and make everything bigger? That's how it worked on every other computer that I've had lol

    Either way, thank you for the tips :>
