Hi, I really appreciate you doing this it helped me a lot. I edited the cfg files and now have it running in the 1024x768 window. The difference between me and you is, when I go into the settings in game to either 1) uncheck windowed mode and make it fullscreen, or 2) simply change the resolution to something other than 1024x768, it doesn't do anything. So close the game to restart it, but then it does what it was doing before editing the cfg files: not opening but running in the background and taking up system resources according to the Task Manager.

Now, I looked at the cfg files (both) after doing these things, and I found that only the secondary one in the Documents changes according to what you do in the in-game graphics menu. I did then go over and duplicate what was in the Documents cfg in the one within the SH4 files themselves, but this made no difference. The only way it opens at all for me thus far is by the way the video had it: everything off and only 1024x768 resolution manually set in *both* main.cfg files. Any ideas why you might be able to change things in game once yours opens, but mine is still giving me crap? Any help much appreciated

UPDATE: Apparently it also works on manually setting 1280x768, 1360x768, and 1366x768 in both cfg files. Apparently it only works when the second value is 768 for some reason....I will do more digging and see if any others work...
