... - Someone in the SH3 threads had similar happening with the game running in the background, but not displaying. I cannot find the postings about what they did... Memory is not my strong suite anymore, but it might have been the "Properties" page for the game executable, just like with Silent Hunter 4 - but your mentioning of that driver sounds familiar also... Windows 10 especially really tries to "Smooth" things, and alter the DPI stuff itself, and attempts to "help" the user. The older DirectX 9 games do not have the "circuitry" to understand that, just like they don't know what "virtualization" is when it comes to addressing, which is why they all get confused when you shell-out to Windows from one of the old games...
