Oversized display

I have the game setup according to the instructions and it seems to be running fine except the display is oversized on my screen so it's basically unplayable as I can't see menu sections etc... I set the resolution in the skyrim config settings, I also checked .ini's in ...mygames/skyrim folder and in the install directory for any references to resolution I may need to change. Nothing seems to be out of order but I can't figure out how to get the game to run sized properly to my screen.

I need 16:9 1920x1080p resolution which I have it set for but I'm not getting it.

It needs to be set up in the .ini file

\Skyrim\Mod Organizer\profiles\Default
In this file below:
skyrimprefs.ini

Change these 3 line to this:
[Display]

bFull Screen=0
iSize H=1080
iSize W=1920


Note: bFull Screen=1 - can be set if you do not windowed mode
Welcome to the site

If you started Skse through MO (like you should) and your windows resolution is 1920x1080

game should start just fine as that resolution is set in the default pack

X:\Skyrim\profiles\Rotten

skyrimprefs.ini :

bFull Screen=1
iSize H=1080
iSize W=1920

Hmmm, I checked the .ini and somehow it was 1920x1200. Changed it and now everything fits perfect, thanks a lot for the help guys.

Haha, I actually have a big 42" monitor except it's a TV :lol:

If I could trouble you with one more question it hasn't caused me any issue yet but when I sort the plugins in MO I only get one warning.

"SkyTEST-RealisticAnimals&Predators.esm
CRC: 7B5F9E63
Warning: Contains 12 ITM records. Clean with TES5Edit."

I'm familiar with using TESVedit but when I open it to clean the plugin it doesn't show up in the list at all so I'm unable to clean it. I've looked through the list thoroughly and tried entering it in the search bar but it's not there. I thought it may have been in merged mods so I cleaned them but they had no ITM records to clean and I still get the same warning when sorting.

run TES5Edit through mod organizer it should be one in the ones up top.

Select Skyrim.esm,Update esm and skytest.
Apply filter for cleaning and the rest of the stuff that needs doing

thank for letting me know.

Ahh, that's what I was doing wrong. I was just opening the .exe for TES5edit in the main install folder. I'm good to go now thanks again.

OOPs my bad, had the wrong folder for 206 skyrimprefs.ini

Thanks Rotten for correcting me
