Default Fable menus

Having problems with Fable menus once in game. I can play the game fine, no
glitches so far for any ingame interaction or movement, I have my resolution
set to 1280x1024x32 on a Radeon 9800Pro with the latest ATI drivers and DX9c.
The problem I have is that if I get an ingame quest menu, or if I open up the
options to adjust any settings or key mappings, the resolution seems to drop
back to 640x480 and I cannot access all the areas of the menus... I am not
able to adjust any settings, save games, nothing. I cannot click ok for any
quests. Is there any fix or work around for this? Perhaps a patch?

Default RE: Fable menus

I had the same problem with my x800.

Set your resolution and set all graphics options to mininum
Shadow
Anti-Aliasing etc.

Once you get the game started at 1280x1024. Adjust each setting (one at a
time) one notch.

Eventually, it will tell you "your card doesn't support this" or you'll max
out the setting.

For me, everything is maxed out save shadow. I have to run it one notch below.

Correction set your resolution to 1280x1024 with all other options set for
minimum.

Sorry

Default RE: Fable menus

I got it to set itself properly once I killed the process and restarted the
game - then everything seemed to switch correctly.

Thanks for the response!
