I installed the files u sent and changed settings in configuration file and in game to 1280x720 and it helped got menu bigger it wasnt fullscreen, but it went fullscreen when I started playing which was what I wanted all along thanks for the tip . Just noticed one thing, forgot older C&C's like TS have u pan cursor to edge of screen to move camera was used to directional pad or wasd keys. XD
The nostalgia though was worth it, still a great game, heck Cabal was worth it alone.
[Edit] PSA: Just so others know who may have same issue, I left the files from that site in my original post in plus the ones suggested, all in the directory and it worked for me. Just make sure under compatibility u enable reduced color mode 16-bit.
