Supposing the native resolution of your monitor is 1440*900:
* Try changing the resolution in MyDocuments\SH4\data\cfg\main.cfg to: Resolution=1440,900,60,22. 60 is the frequency. If the frequency is too high (75), the screen will indeed go black.
* Try launching the sh4.exe with the /1440 900 parameter (change the shortcut on the desktop like this: from "C:\Program Files\SilentHunter4\sh4.exe" to "C:\Program Files\SilentHunter4\sh4.exe /1440 900".

Maerean,
Thanks for taking time for me man... I know how busy you guys are. I changed the resolution in the Main.cfg. No Joy!

I then tried to change the runtime parameter.... Vista tells me "Windows can not find C:\Program Files\SilentHunter4\sh4.exe /1440 900. Make sure you typed it correctly." I've tried to even run the command from the "Run" option with the same results..

If you installed in the default path without making any changes that won't be the correct path to the program. Just a thought.
By default, but maybe you changed it, it installs in:
"C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\gu.exe" I can also run it using sh4.exe instead of gu.exe. I don't know what the gu.exe is but either one worked for me. If you installed it to the path you describe than ignore this. Also make sure you use the correct slash, the one before the parameters is forwardslash the others are backslash.

Just a quick question to Capt Spankyin in case I get a new monitor. Do you need anything between the paramaters like a comma or something or just put them like you did. I noticed earlier in you comment you had commas. It's been so long since I did parameters I have forgotten.
