Maybe they'll be of help.
for those visitors who cannot access the areas of the forum where these threads reside,
I'll try to quote the meat-and-potatoes of their suggestions.

I don't know if this has been covered elsewhere but I thought it may help a user or two here.
As we all know, higher and higher resolution displays on our laptops are becoming more and more common. Even full HD now seems quaint. My Dell XPS 15 has a resolution of 3200 x 1800 and that's not unusual anymore. The result is that some software can open in impossibly small windows - rendering it useless. In my experience all Toontrack software falls into this category.
Fear not! There is a fairly simple solution.
The lowly manifest file.
Below is the text of an example manifest file. In fact, it's the manifest file for my laptop - fixing EZdrummer 2.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EZdrummer64
false
Note the line toward the beginning that says:
"name="EZdrummer64.exe""
That must contain the exact name of the executable file. A few lines below it is another place we need to enter the application name.
To use this file. Open a new, blank text file. Copy and paste the above into the text file and save it to the directory where the offending application lives.
In my case, that directory is:
C:\Program Files\Toontrack\EZdrummer
The file must be named as follows:
Exact original executable name + .manifest.
eg.
EZdrummer64.exe.manifest
As mentioned before, it must reside in the same directory as that exe.
After the file exists and is in the correct location, all you have to do is launch the application normally and windows will take care of the rest.
There is ZERO danger in using this. It only gives windows a few instructions that tell it how to render. NO permanent changes are made to anything. If you don't like the results, simply delete the manifest file and all will return to original state.
Hope this helps,
Greg
