Right-click desktop -> Properties -> Settings -> Advanced -> Displays -> Panel -> Tick scaling, and select the scale to full panel option.
(seems like I've said this a million times in the past day or two )

"Displays" should be one of the tabs you see at the top after you click Advanced.

Also you should check scaling is enabled in the BIOS just in case. Press F2 upon boot and cycle through to the Device configuration page. On that make sure "Video Expansion" is enabled.

Mine was fullscreen when I started up the game. If I changed the resolution inside game it would not be fullscreen. So I just wnet back to standrad setting and restarted the game and it worked. However the game was quite dissapointing. Not much of a challange and the old sneaking seem to be all over. The best tacticts seems to be go in quake 3 style and just blast the bastards back to the dark ages.
