« on: March 16, 2008, 12:14:07 PM »
I just installed the game, tried a couple Resolution settings and now its stuck in "Can't display this video mode"

How do I get back into the settings without starting the game??

I tried to uninstall and reinstall and its still not working!!

Your video card should have settings you can change in Windows.

Try "Display" in Control Panel or find your vid card settings program, start it and change them there.

Try to delete the video8.cfg file in the HTC folder?

Go into C:\Program Files\HTC\Aces High II\settings, and delete the file named Video8.cfg.

To prevetn this problem from happening again, make sure you have the correct monitor INF file loaded for your monitor. 

Right-click anywhere on your desktop, select "Properties", then select the "Settings" tab and press the "Advanced" button.  Now select the "Monitor" tab.  If th monitor name is "Default Display" or "Plu N Play", then you need to load the monitor INF driver file.  Typically those can be found at the monitor manufacturer's WEB site.

Once that file is loaded, you willnot be able to select a resolution from the Aces High II drop down list that the monitor cannot run.

What happened here is you selected a resolution your monitor cannot run.

Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.
