Using my display changes the display to in your case 1024x768. Changing the
resolution in the game changes what resolution the game only uses. For
instance, you might set the game to 640x480 and run it in a window. If the
original display resolution was greater than 1024x768, a low resolution
setting in the game might have produced the display appearance you
mentioned. To use the game at that resolution, it's usually necessary to run
it in a window, unless you want the game to take over the whold display
screen. Some laptops and LCD monitors behave a bit differently than the
norm, and are exceptions that are individually dealt with.
