Over-riding Screen resolution?

Look for the [VIDEO] section, then "Resolution=". On my system, the default resolution is given as "Resolution=1024,768,60,22". The third value is the Refresh Rate, the 4th is the Color Depth. I don't know why its set to 22 and not 32, just leave it alone. "Save" your changes, and exit the file.

Ah Captain, my Captain! You have saved the day! Although a perfectly acceptable suggestion was made by an Irish laddie, the weather is turning foul here and I didn't favour venturing forth.

Accordingly, your solution involving staying warm and playing at being a Sparky suits me passing well! I'll raise a tot of porter to you in thanks from a grateful supplicant.

PS yep, that's it. Simple when you know what you are doing. Thanks again.

I had the exact same problem and this was just what I needed!
