I recently bought a new Lenovo Legion laptop. I am running Windows 11 and have an NVIDIA graphics card and an Intel processor. My default screen resolution is 2560 x 1600.
After getting this new laptop I bought Civ III Complete, Civ IV Complete and Civ V Complete from Steam.
To date I have had no problems launching Civ III. It has worked every time. However, after having successfully launched both Civ IV and Civ V, I am now finding that Civ IV only successfully launches sporadically, and Civ 5 launches but only within a small window, not full screen. I am puzzled about what to do.
Does anyone think this is a screen resolution issue (I have tried several), or is it DirectX, or something else that is causing the issues with Civ IV not always launching and Civ V now only launching in a small window?
The downloads of all three games from Steam occurred in the last days of December 2023, so I have assumed that all were up to date with the latest versions of what I needed to play.
Any ideas would be appreciated, and thank you to the community.
Kindest regards.
