ccmechanic2 Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Ok I think I know why, your display properties should also have a monitor tab, click it and see if it says default generic or if it has what you actually have as a monitor? You want generic as apposed to what you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmopotato Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Display properties is set at generic, still won't work. I heard something about going into the game's text files and changing the number of cores used. Do you know if that might work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmopotato Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 All it did was make my screen a giant block... Should I just uninstall/reinstall it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccmechanic2 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 yep. I would after to long of a time and hasle. treat it like it's brand new so you can keep track. I know I lost track already. I've been busy. Just make sure when you begin a fresh one. there is no evidence on the system anywhere that the game was ever installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
