Some video cards require you to set the screen height and width for each individual mode of resolution. This may also include the centering vertically and horizontally of your picture. As your NW game starts up, it will switch back and forth into several different resolution modes and you"ll see the shifting going on if you have not tuned each mode.
Your startup page will be in one resolution, your menu page may be added different one, in your game play in still another. Some video cards have a hard time changing modes and will flicker or blink in the process. I personally seen as happened more often in Radion cards then Invidea .

You'll have to look at your video setup and fine-tune each resolution mode individually. This can be time-consuming, but your ultimate goal should be a "0" shift and size change in the picture as you go from one resolution to another.
