ok i dont really know how to explain this... but i will try.

ok the problem is that no matter what i do the screen resolution is stuck at 600 by 400 or whatever the smallest size is. that and the color is stuck at 16bit. there are no other options other than those. i cant fix it and i even reformated my computer. anyone have any ideas? it will be much appreciated

HA! this is the best thing ever! all i had to do was DL the new driver for my video card. i reformated and lost everything for nothing ><
