576 is indeed too short for the height of the minimal interface that requires 600 pixels. I'm afraid there is no solution.

I understand, it is a shame I cant try something custom like 1024x600.
The game queries your video drivers for all available modes. If your video card/monitor supported 1024x600, it would be on the list.
So does it run at 1024x600 with all the interface elements visible? EU2 can be made 1024x600 with the resolution changer tool but it hides the history log at the bottom, so I have to run it at 800x600 on my Netbook and it would be nice to use the whole screen, tiny as it is.

I'm running it right now on resolution.
It's designed for many resolutions. No worry there.
Ran as Administrator has fixed the problem, sometimes I miss XP.
Thanks for the help though.

Reason enough to get it right there - thanks!
Hmm.. Just bought & installed it, and won't let me change resolution. Loads up at 1280x1024, lists resolutions up to 2048x1536. Tried changing to 1920x1440 (current display mode) & restarting, but changes not taking effect.
Running it on Vista Home Premium with 2x Nvidia 280's and an Apple 30" monitor.

You have to run the game as Admin if you install in the default location (Program Files). Load the game as Admin and change the resoultion, exit game and re-launch the game as Admin. I believe this should work, at least I had to do this for the DEMO
Ah yes, that worked thank you
Good to see the tutorial starts with East Anglia, my old home county. Now to see if I can do better than old Roger Bigod!

Just installed and fired up at 1920 x 1080 but I feel like I need a pair of glasses. Unfortuntaly this is the only widescreen resolution.
I tried running the demo at my standard 1650x1080 and kept trying to find the next zoom-in level.
Changed to 1440x900, which is better size-wise (I can actually SEE the sprite details), but sadly leaves everything a bit blurry.
I use 1650x1050 as standard.
Adding another zoom level is unaffordable without complete rewriting of the map and sprites display.

But 1920x1080 is the only widescreen resolution. That's the 'problem'.
the resolution proposed come from what Windows proposes too. Have you more wide screen resolutions in the configuration panel > personalization (translated from french) > display settings (also translated) ?
If your monitor runs at 1080 then 1440x900 is a different aspect ratio. Its 16:10 where 1080 is 16:9.
You will want ####x720 if its on that list.That would be the next 16:9 resolution.
I personally run it at 1080 without any issues.
Naturally, I mistyped. My monitor runs at 1680x1050, so 1440x900 is the same ratio. It just doesn't "like" most other resolutions.
