When initially downloading the engine test, I ran into this problem, and a reinstall didn't help. I also ran into the problem just now when installing/starting the game for the first time in Steam, so now I'm really stumped.
Basically, I accidentally set the game resolution to the lowest setting (300x200-ish, not that, exactly) the first time I ran the game. Upon restart, since the menu buttons didn't go to the center of the very small window that NS2 was now running in, I couldn't change the resolution to a usable setting. Is there some way for me to set the resolution manually, or otherwise get around this resolution issue?

Go to your App Data folder "C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Natural Selection 2" and edit the options.xml file. There are a few headers that describe the resolution setting, detail level, and full screen.
