Every time I launch Tomb Raider, it launches in windowed mode. I have checked both full screen and exclusive fullscreen option. Resolution is 1366 x 768. What is causing this?

This is my configuration:

Windows 7 64 bit
6 GB RAM
Intel Core i5 2.3GHz
Geforce GT 525M

  • @jeffreylin_ I believe he means "Tomb Raider is launching in windowed mode" and he wishes the game to launch in full screen mode instead.

Try unchecking the 'Exclusive Full Screen' option (leaving the 'full screen' option checked). This worked for me on Win7 with an ATI Radeon 7800 series.
