@Achrael - This is an Easy Fix.

 

(*the tip in your message is the small vertical line).

 

 


Without your game running.

 

Please click Start and in the search bar type %appdata/%

 

At the top Navigate back from the "Roaming" folder back to "Appdata"; now click on "Local".

 

Scroll down until you find "Swtor", Open this folder and its sub-folders (Swtor/Settings) until you can find "Client Settings"

 

Here you will wish to manually change these lines...

 

 

WindowX = 0
WindowY = 0

 

NativeHeight = 1080 (This should be your screens 'native resolution')
NativeWidth = 1920 (This should be your screens 'native resolution')

 

Height = 1080 (This should be your screens 'native resolution')

Width = 1920 (This should be your screens 'native resolution')

 

Close and Save, you should be good to go.

@Achrael Hey, I'd try a clean reinstall of your graphics drivers. They may be current, but perhaps there's an issue/minor corruption with some element of the package. 

A clean reinstall should discount the drivers as  a potential source of the issue.

@Achrael @EA_David @DBWoodynz

 

When the Symptoms are exactly like this the best answer is

 

Press ALT + Enter keys then when the screen comes back up , go into preferences and adjust the ingame resolution again. 

 

No need to re-install drivers or try and get into the APPDATA area, Simple key strokes will sort it.
