I recently installed Quake2 and I can't see the health bar! My nvidia drivers have overscan correction, but only while in 720p and 1080I. This does me no good because most software doesnt even use those resolutions. It certainly isn't an option in Quake2! lol Does anyone have any idea how I can go about correcting this? Thanks!
