Game stopped working on new monitor

[illyB]

I just purchased a new Samsung TFT-LCD flat screen, set it up and now my game wont run. I get the auto play menu, click Play and we're back at desktop. Does anyone have a suggestion on why this is happening, is it the monitor, or just dumb timing ?

I'm not that good with computers, so any help would be great!

Just guessing, but ...

New monitor and bug came in???

Plug in old monitor, does bug go away?

yes -> update monitor drivers. Option 2. Downgrade monitor drivers! Somehow older drivers sometimes, just sometimes, fix a problem.

no -> not your monitor.


Obscure possibility:
something to do with game resolution.
the Config.ini file (usually found in the game saves directory, under My Documents -> My games) can be manually edited to change resolution. Try setting the values for resolution lower, then try higher!!

Try turning all of the various vid options in the Config to 1, then try 0.
