I just bought the game 10 minutes ago. I downloaded it and tried setting it to full screen when it condensed into the top left corner of the screen (shown in the attached image). I've tried deleting the game and reinstalling but it didn't change the settings so it was no longer full screen. I have to way to click on the check mark for full screen in the options. I haven't changed any game files at all. any advice would be much appreciated this is an awesome game and I'd like to be able to play it.

You can switch to fullscreen mode by editing the config.ini (https://wiki.factorio.com/index.php?tit ... _directory), but I doubt that this will fix your issue. Try the measures to troubleshoot graphic problems from the FAQ.

Also, provide please the log file, so we know what system/GPU configuration you have, or any other related info.

Thanks for the report. Should be finally fixed for next version.
Also I originally misread Loewchen's answer - you should set fullscreen to false and the game will start in windowed mode properly.
