So I just installed it and it had a series of options for me to choose, including desired screen resolution. I'm on a Tibook so when I saw 1280 I just chose that. Unfortunately it was 1280x1024, incompatible with my screen. Now after it loads the startup screen and intro it gives me an error stating:

DrawSprcket cannont swtich to the requested resolution (1280x1024, 16bit, 1 buffer). Make sure your computer meets the display requirements specified in the read me file.

I tried to re-install, but the option to choose resolution does not appear anymore, and the same thing happens. How can I change the resolution again? Please help
