I have an issue when trying to run on my computer at this resolution (this is the only resolution that works with the screen on this PC--it's a 42" TV that it's connected to, and that's the only screen output). The central (perhaps 5/8ths) of the screen appears fine; however, at the outer edges on both sides, it is simply black. This covers up several of the menu panes, and I'm unable to select units to build or commmand (because the left-hand menu for doing so is under the blacked-out portion of the screen).

I've tried downloading the latest patch, and I've tried other screen resolutions, but the screen is unable to use them (it spazzes out, some pixels randomly assume different colors and the screen often flickers, as well as the very visible distortion that takes place). What should I do?

**EDIT**
Actually, with the patch, it now seems to just be crashing on launch. I get a black screen until I try and hit Ctrl-Alt-Delete, and then I get a message saying it has encountered an error and has to close.
