Combat arms startup problem (need help)

hi everyone im new to crossfire it looks like a great game but i just finished installing it and have the very weird error i hope you all can help me out with.

so i click the desktop item. then i click start game and the game hack shield loads up. everything is going fine the hvdm w.e thing finishes goes to step 10 then the acualy game opens. now this is the wierd part. the game opens and the login interface but i cannot click or type any where. also the game is very zoomed in and i can see my bottom computer tab. (look below to see the screenshot of this error)



i have tried re-installing twice from differant mirrors both times and i get the same error someone please help. i feel like giving up on this game. all other first person fps shooters work fine and ive never had a problem like this......
