Stunning new game for pc
#31
Hi velryba,
post two or three posts above should solve your problem.
Black screen then back to desktop instantly is normally a sign of an old video card driver or not running directx8.1 and it can't change to the correct resolution/refresh rate.
If you running a geforce card, check what drivers you are running, the 3.0.8.2 ones from nvidia (which came out in early august) fixed my black screen issue.

The proper way to fix this is to go into c:\program files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942 Multiplayer Demo\Settings and right click on VideoDefault.con. open the file with notepad and you should be presented with the following:
rem * TEMP *
renderer.setFullScreen 1
renderer.fieldOfView 1
renderer.globalLodRadius 1
renderer.globalLodRadiusScaleFactor 5
console.showStats 0
renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 0
Now change the bottom line value to 1
Save, run the game and job done
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Nick

rem * TEMP *

renderer.fieldOfView 1
renderer.globalLodRadius 1
renderer.globalLodRadiusScaleFactor 5
console.showStats 0
