I assume this happens with HOF? I had the same problem to solve it you must edit the file user.cfg (in hof its something like usera1.cfg something like that) , located in mydocs\my games\homm5\profiles..

Edit that file and look for the word FULL SCREEN and change the value there from 0 to 1.

Sorry for bump, but think this might be most similar to my problem.

In short - can't get Heroes 5 to play fullscreen. So far, only HoF works normally. Vanilla and ToTE not.

When I start the game, splash screen shows, then for about half a second (prolly less) that first intro can be seen, and then game apparently goes into windowed mode. I say apparently for I can't actually see that window (desktop is visible), yet I can hear the music from the game, and cursor has movement limits of that window. Weird thing, with ToTE, if you right click on program on taskbar, there's Maximize option too (with restore and close), so I can maximize the window, game then shows up - menu and such, and then in options can tick fullscreen option which was unticked. In user.cfg, fullscreen is enabled I think (setvar gfx_fullscreen = 1), yet seems to not matter.

Have a bit of trouble to explain the problem exactly, and will try later to give more info, but hopefully someone might know where the problem is...

Ah, good old re-install seems to fix it. Haven't installed expansions yet though...

So damn frustrating, didn't do anything save for not playing it for...around 12 hours, and same thing happened.

This is current user.cfg from game folder, have to change something there?
