The game bases its choices on what windows reports it is capable of, but many laptops don't have actual monitor drivers and the generic PnP monitor driver can have issues with that. You can set the resolution manually in the file below, or use windowed mode.

Config location -

Vista:
C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Setting\user.setting

XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\your username\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Setting\user.setting

Please note that some of these directories are hidden by default. To unhide them, go to Control Panel -> Folder Options -> View and set yourself to view hidden files and folders.
