after installment the game was set @ 1920x 1080
I changed it 2 1800x1010 (because my HDTV cuts off the sides & the top & bottom). Do u think i should try a low res

Way to go Blizzard. Ive heard of this problem on a few other forums. Not sure if the Blizzard forums have anything on it yet. Might try there. As always, quality is #1 on Blizzards list. :shadedshu I think im going to NOT buy this game for a while. Loved the first one but not to sure about the 2nd installment.

it sucks that i have been waiting 4 this game since they announced it. Blizzard has always been a company that was worried about quality, even if it means delaying a game 4 months after its so called release date.

well thanks 4 the help & i guess i will sit and look @ my $100 game (Collector Edition):banghead:

Try a more standard resolution. 1800x1010 isn't exactly a resolution that is common.

Yes, it is a horrible that a program would have a bug that effects a very minor percentage of users on release day... Such shitty quality, I suggest we all boycott Blizzard forever.:rolleyes:

I uninstalled geforce drivers, restarted the computer. I ran driver sweeper, & restarted the computer again (downloaded from Guru3D) & reinstalled video driver (geforce) still same problem.

I'm thinking there's nothing you can do till blizzard addresses this. Just run in full screen windowed mode as you said that works. But does your view of the game move when your mouse hits the wall of the game?

I've noticed that Starcraft 2 seems to be very sensitive with overclocked video cards.
I am only able to run my HD 5870 at stock clocks or I get gray screen glitches. My friend with a GTX 480 experiences hard crashes with any video overclocking whatsoever. Both of us are able to maintain stable GPU overclocks in other games and applications without issue.

Despite Blizzard taking forever to release this game, I don't think it's as polished or stable as it should be.
