BATTLEFIELD 2142, WIDESCREEN OR ANY SCREEN

Hey guys, i recently just got a 37" widescreen LCD for my gaming. The problem i have is getting bf2142 to run right. Now, i understand that it doesn't support widescreen format, but i know people can force widescreen and have hacks to have it function correctly. I have tried the shortcut one but that seems to work for only the original from what i read. My screen will start up black and quickly go back to desktop on any setting. I can not get into the game to change anything either. my current resolution is 1024x768. It doesnt work on this either. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I also do not care about punkbuster, i just wanna see this bad ass on my 37".

Changed your screen ? BF2/BF2142 not working anymore ?

Both of those threads didn't work. They did not fix the problem i am having. For some reason bf2142 will not start up on my 37" monitor. Tried everything in both threads to no avail.

Is your "Monitor" actually a TV?

If so these have issues with resolutions and refresh rates. You need to check exactly what it supports so you can modify the shortcut accordingly.

BTW if it is a TV and you are using it like a monitor I gotta say one thing ..... MOTION SICKNESS!!!! :P I tried my 32" TV and it was very ordinary, it is OK at a distance though.

If it isn't a TV, then I dunno the fixes posted should work. Try moving your entire BF2142 directory from My Docs. It will create a new one when you start the game and then you will have to fix all your settings.

I'm using my TV, and have no problems, I play my PS3 with no motion sickness, and Counter Strike Source (PC) is amazing. Maybe your just a wuss lol.

What do you mean, what doesn't work. Is there something changing at all or doesn't it do anything?
