Vista - Crysis / Crysis Warhead resolutions problems

Hello,

I have tried searching all historic threads and been unable to find my answer, but please forgive me if this has been covered before.

I have just upgraded to Vista 64x SP1 and am having difficulties with Crysis / Crysis Warhead. My specific problem is that it is not allowing me to select resolutions higher than 1280. When I was running it on XP Pro 32 bit it was running at 1920 by 1080, and allowed me to select up to this resolution and all lower options.

I am particularly confused because:

• Far Cry 2 runs in 1920 * 1080 without problems
• My desktop is set at 1920 * 1080
• I have tried creating a autoexec.cfg file in the game directories forcing the width and height without success
• I have reinstalled the latest vista 64x CCC and drivers
• I have tried reinstalling both games completely without success
• thewre is no scroll bar on the right in the resolution options which I have forgot to use

I upgraded to a 64x system specifically for Crysis / CW as I understood it would improve performance and I wanted to see the DX10 effect - needless to say I am very frustrated as a result!

Any help anyone could offer would be gratefully received,

Thanks

i got the same problem

crysis warhead problem

I have found a solution from another site which works for myself - I hope it will be of benefit to others:

In the Catalyst Control Centre, under HDTV support, add 1080i30(NTSC) and add 1080p60(NTSC). Then select 1080p60(NTSC) from the options at the bottom and apply. Crysis / CW may start windowed but by using Alt + Enter ( in my case twice) you can get them to work fullscreen, when actually in the game.

It seems the problem relates to ATI drivers and DX10, when using a TV instead of a monitor.

AMD Game Forums - ALWAYS 1920x1080i @60Hz in DirectX 10 games

i have vista 64 ultimate on a AMD athlon dual 6000 w/direct and hypelink amd 8 gigs of ram it just runs better in windows mode and i could only get it to run in window mode, and im way over specs on that btw an awsome game never made it past the train ride but it ran perfect and its nice so you can still do other things while playing the game goto love the windows button

my game recently patched itself and now it works in 1900x1200 resolution... but ive already beat it twice lol and i just got gta4 so im kinda hooked on that now lol
