Okay,I'm having this infuriating issue with quite a few games. There are certain games that the minute I start them up on my 17" Proview monitor, I get a Mode Not Supported error.Any idea of how to fix this when there's no visible,editable video setup file for the game? It seems to be a widespread issue from what I've read around the web.
I have an Nvidia 8500 GT graphics card and in the Nvidia control panel I can choose custom video settings for all the supported games, and I can use custom resolutions and different refresh rates as well, but how do I apply them to the particular game I want to play?
