EPTUnfortunately, due to the way that windows 8 handles multitasking between metro apps (dragging other running "apps" in from the left), I can't seem to scroll left while playing a game. I've done alot of googling, and it seems that other games don't seem to have this problem, and that people have been successfully running SC without this problem, so I'm trying to identify the source. This happens in fullscreen and fullscreen (windowed) mode, because the mouse has to go all the way to the left in order to start the scrolling, and these are the only ways I like to play. Thanks for any and all help!

I'm not using it as my primary OS, but it is nice to not have to reboot everytime I play SC, especially because performance is better here than in 7 for me cus of no background programs. Oh! And HAIL R1CH! I feel so honored to have you in one of my threads XD. Thanks for all the awesome work you do for the community! | ||

Not playing on a virtual box and also playing in Fullscreen. Not sure if that helps anyone but just letting you know that it does work. | ||

If anyone can ever find a solution that doesn't require a res change, please PM me! In ra(y's solution he says to change the res back to whatever you feel like | ||
