I don't know, but a long time, whenever I load nightmist it seems to misread my resolution. My resolution is usually 1024x768, but even when I change resolutions it reads my resolution about one setting lower, and it's REALLY annoying!

Here, look at these screenshots. (Click the links)

Anyway, today I changed my resolution to 800x600 and guess what:

an annoying error message pops up that says:

"Your computer is set to a resolution of 640X480, please increase it to at least 800x600 in the display control panel for optimal game playing."

How stupid!

There any way I can fix this? It doesn't seem to happen with any of my other programs. . .

This is because you are running your pc with the "large fonts" option in the display control panel.
Why it doesn't it, I don't know, first time it's been reported to me.

Thanks. That's really weird. . . Is it like that with all VB programs or something?

By default, yes.
I could fix all the font sizes, but that would probs annoy people who wanted to see things bigger.
It's the dpi thing in the display control panel which confuses things that are not set to stretch by themselves.
