Have to necro this, since I changed laptop and have this issue.

Changing res/fullscreen/scaling in game doesn't do thing. I've switched desktop one to 1360x768, removed cfg file, but after running the game I doesn't seem to do shit.
Changing win res to any other also doesn't do shit either.

Damn.. its been a minute since I last had to figure this one out; first of all are you on Windows? Because my most recent adventure with this issue had to be resolved in Linux using Proton, resorting to a Wine interface that enables downloading specific old Windows dll files and such like.

If you're using Windows, what I recall having to do was first of all setting the launcher to load under an older version of Windows, probably XP service pack 2 or 3 something like this. Then I turned off the scaling options under properties, launched the game and selected the lowest in-game resolution option in x32 bit. It sounds like, why would anyone ever do that, but I believe it was the only way I managed to get it running. Then you have to close the game entirely because Grimoire does not reflect video options without relaunching it, and it should launch then into a stretched mode that covers the entire screen.

If you're having mouse floating issues, I believe this is also resolved by the option of launching the game under previous versions of Windows, but if it is still not ideal, you can lower your mouse polling rate, which should correct it. I have a post above in this thread from about 3 years ago, which is the last time I had to figure this out on Windows, so maybe refer to that if my instructions here aren't correct since that was posted right after figuring it out.
Nothing seems to work, I give the fuck up - tried all options mentioned in this thread and steam forums in every possible combination/sequence.

Problem seems to lie with Win 10 - on prev laptop with Win 8 all was fine.
