After 'upgrading' to win2k, gpl graphics are garbled (after the splash screen). So I find out from the newsgroups that the smiley glide fix should sort me out. I've installed it, and it fixes the garbled graphics, but now the visible area is squashed into the top left quarter (ish) of the screen. I have checked that the resolution in the smiley .ini file and in the game settings are the same (1028x768). What am I missing here? BTW, I am using the Omega 1.02 drivers for my voodoo 3 3000 - these are the ones that allow Colin McRae 2 to work. (At least the Win98 version did...)

Er, sorry, classic RTFM moment. This happens for the menu screens only - in game is fine.
