Default Re: What Happened?

Well, I've just tried the game on Win 8 64 bits for the first time on a HP 1000 Notebook with desktop resolution at 1366x768 32 bit 60Hz, with the following results:

With no compatibility selected, windowed mode works perfect at desktop resolution just the task bar taking some space at the bottom but not a game breaker, full screen works and looks well at desktop resolution but with delayed movement and screen scrolling.If I try full screen at lower resolutions it starts working at 1024x768.

If I switch hardware to desktop resolution 1280x768 then the game full screen works at desktop resolution.

Compatibility changes to XP or switching between DirectX or GDI doesn't seem to have any effect. I hope this helps somehow.

My favorite mode is full screen so please bear with me if I insist on playing this way, it appears that the delay I mentioned above is the only issue present at the moment though my tests were limited to moving some units on the Tutorial Scenario.

I've tried different values for Graphics Delay and Unit Move Delay and the movement is faster but the issue persists: the unit takes about 3/4 of its movement then it stops for a moment and then resumes, same with the scrolling, I assume it has something to do with graphics? Any idea on how to solve it?

EDIT: Apparently I have the latest drivers but I´ll double check.

Thanks in advance.
