resolution problems

[captaintim 0]

Hi, I've just been installing ArmA and thought I'd experiment with which resolution looked/operated the best. I tried one (can't remember which, 1024xsomething) and the screen went black. I've uninstalled, deleted the ArmA directory and done a system restore but its still black when I go into the game. I can hear the sound, so it is playing, but there is no display

Luckily I only chose to operate it through one of the two users on my computer, and I can display it through the other one, but how can I sort it out with my main user, any ideas?

Many thanks in advance

Browse your

'documents and settings\yourusername\own documents\Arma'

folder for the 'ArmA.cfg' file and either rename or delete it.

(ArmA creates new one upon start)

Also, you can try to change the resolution you have had working

before manually within that file. (800x600? )

-

Resolution_W=800;

Resolution_H=600;

-

And also, check if this line: 'refresh=XX;' (xx=60 - ??)

matches the supported refreshrate of your monitor.

For mine CRT, this is set at 'refresh=85'

Do not set higher than supported (= black display)

--

For now, leave everything else in there untouched

except res and refresh.

That should do?
