I have a monitor that I used with an old desktop and now use with my new PC. It's about ten years old so I think it's 1280x1024 (that's the recommended resolution in windows). For some reason my copy of Civ5 BNW shifts the entire screen downward about half an inch, but everything else on my desktop is fine. I can't see the bottom part of the screen, which is downright annoying but not game-breaking. In the video options screen it says the resolution displayed is 1280x1024, the same as the recommended resolution which works fine everywhere else. But it's not fine in Civ5. What should I do?

BTW this monitor also did this with Civ3 Complete on Steam, but since I could still see the entire screen I just ignored it.
 
nevermind. Turns out my monitor was displaying at 1280x1024 60Hz, but Civ5 was displaying 1280x1024 75 Hz. It looks fine now.
