    I am unable to play scrabble on my laptop because the whole board does not display. Cannot see all the tiles or buttons to create a play or exchange or pass. I changed the resolution, but this did not help. What can I do?

    The game may play on Flash. Try updating your Flash. http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

    If it is not a Flash-based game, it may be a graphics driver issue, especially if the Scrabble game is one designed for older versions of Windows. Check with NViDIA's Web site (http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us) or ATI/Raedon's (http://support.amd.com/us/Pages/AMDSupportHub.aspx) ... depending on your graphics adapter. Not sure which adapter? Click Start > Control Panel > System > Device Manager and expand the listing for Display adapters. Right-click and select Propertes and select the Driver tab and you'll see various buttons (though do please steer clear of the ones reading Disable and Uninstall). Odds are it isn't the driver, however .. the more  likely scenario is  that the game was designed for a previous (and now obsolete) version of Windows.. Not to worry, there is a quick (and usually effective) fix for this too. Go to Start > All Programs and look for the folder containing the Scrabble game. Click the folder and select the executable (i.e., the filename ending with .exe) that launches the game. Right-click and select Properties. Select the Compatibility tab. Check the box next to Run this program in compatibility mode for: and then select a previous Windows version from the drop down list (Windows XP SP3, for instance). You may also need to check the Disable visual themes box (disables Windows Aero display) and/or Disable desktop composition ... experiment and it'll probably work.
