Fruitbat, thanks for your reply and it looks sound. I have changed the conf.ini just as you told me (I put my max res 1920x1080) and changed to OpenGL.

But 1920x1080 does not show up in the video menus, neither does the PERFECT setting in any other video modes. Any attempt to set a higher res simply defaults back to 1280x960x32. I can't get it higher!

I have not installed any patches yet, as the site has just crashed. I did manage to get one Hakenkreuz file to down load swastikas, but bloody windows will not let me install it as it 'might harm my computer' The folder and .exe are installed but the 0.hc through 4.hc files are rejected.

I have restarted my computer too. No joy. Looking at the root file structure, its a bit messy, as I loaded 1946 over my Forgotten battles title.

Shall I uninstall it all and start again re-installing only 1946? (I checked the conf.ini in both root files, and they are the same. It seems one updates the other.)

Any advice?

Flanker,

As for old software 1946 is XP! I ran it okay on vista (with some issues) but Win7 is backwards compatible. Right click on the icon in your desk top and select troubleshoot compatability. Worked for me
