Ishantil Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 That sounds like compatibility issues. I would list your computer's specs and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 What resolution are you running? Is your monitor setup in a vertical configuration? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gshuford Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Try rotating your monitor and mouse 90 degrees. Here's a thread from something else about this sort of problem. Not sure if it will help. http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-1374895.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boredcanadian Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Coincidentally, the last thing I did before checking to see if anyone had replied, was put my monitor on its side. The menus are still squished together though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
