    Anyone ever had this problem before?

    The best alternative I can get is windowed borderless and I have a sneeking suspicion that I am losing FPS or not getting the best resolution because of it.

    When Im in the settings I can set the resolution and tick the box for fullscreen but it only stays ticked for a couple of seconds and then unticks itself? very strange.

    Im using a 1920x1080 TV Via HDMI and its the latest version of the game if that helps.

    TIA

    Does it actually go fullscreen and then go back, or just the box doesn't stay ticked?
    You can try deleting the 'settings' folder from 'Documents/BeamNG.Drive', it will reset all your options just incase.
