I know some forum users are playing this game so when I saw this post I thought it may come in handy? Hidden away .. I wonder why. If you're running Borderlands on a Windows 7 platform, chances are you aren't actually running the game in DirectX 10. Why? The bro's over at ShackNews posted a...

Hey guys, I recently installed the Windows 7 public beta and it detected my hardware and triple monitor setup just fine. However, it set all three monitors to their maximum resolution of 2304x1440. I would like to be able to run them at other resolutions. When I change the resolution slider in...

It seems any game that runs in 256 colors (Diablo II, Starcraft, Worms: Armageddon, Eternal Fighter Zero, etc) have difficulty rendering their palette properly, resulting in garbled graphics or even unplayable situations. The only workaround I can find so far is to actually kill explorer.exe and...
