Default Re: New graphics corruption in v7.1

You will only see this bug in a 4:3 resolution that is clipped in the vertical (by the task bar, or it being too deep for a wide-screen). So my XP box with its old 4:3 1280 monitor shows it at 1600, 1280 but not 1152 in windowed modes, but is fine in 1280 full-screen. (1280 needs the pixels for the task bar removed).

The bug seems to have crept in somewhere in the initialisation code - which I don't recollect touching for quite some time. probably since we introduced desktop mode some time back?. As it is not happening in MBT its likely going to be a 1-line typo or missing line difference between the two, and so I'll have to go through the initialisation line by line and find the blooper.

Cheers
