SW:B Fullscreen Problem

When I start the game it automatically switches to windowed mode. When I set it to go full screen it does, but then the "image" is to big for my screen and it flickers, and then WHAM back to some sort of window mode.
Fullscreen windowed mode works, but that is steeling frames.

    @Stebanskie To start with, find your desktop resolution by right clicking on empty space, then choose Screen resolution. 


    This should be set to your monitor's native resolution, which will be the "recommended" one. If it isn't, try changing this. 


    Once this is done go to settings > Video and set the Fullscreen Resolution value to match this, then check again. 

    As an aside, you mention losing frames playing in fullscreen windowed. This may be the case, but in many/most situations the difference is negligible and won't be noticed. 

    Thanks.

    I'm not new into computers and I'm quite familiar withmy system, so I know my native resolution and how to set it accordingly.
    Could it be because I have 2 monitors?
    They are both 1680x1050 (also set to that mode ingame)
