Tesla Effect - really strange screen issue

I re-installed Tesla last night on the same computer in the same directory (via Steam) and now when I load the game up it opens in a small window in the middle of the screen. When I enlarge it to full screen, the game has two thick vertical lines either side of it which cuts off the sides of the picture. So, when I go to the menu I cannot alter any of the settings.

Has anyone encountered this? Tesla used to run fine prior to re-install.

what did he relate the issue to, I had a few ideas but it's good for steve to suggest a fix then he will know the fix when someone else gets it.

Of all things it was actually related to the registry. For some reason Tesla Effect writes its settings into the registry so if you erase the game and re-install, it remains fixed on the former settings until the entry is removed from the registry. I've never had that happen. Odd but resolved. Looks great on my new monitor!
