I went to play some POE today and when I loaded it, my screen resolution was
640x480x32. I went into the options to adjust it, and found that 640x480 in
either 16 or 32 bit format was the only res available.

Anyone else had this happen? I can't seem to resolve it, and don't really
want the hassle of hunting around in boxes for the CD's (I use a HD image of
CD2 to play) and reinstalling it and all the patches.

I think this is the first time I've tried to play it since the 1.21 update.
It also affects normal BFV and the WWII mod. No other games are affected
including BF42 and any of it's mods.

I'm running a 19" LCD monitor with a screen res of 1280x1024.

strange that you mention this. i was playing secret weapons of WW2
(42 expansion) today and noticed that my res was defaulted to
640x480. I can select 1280x1024, save it, then go back to options
and its back at 640x480 again. I'm not sure that the game IS
actually in 640x480 though?

I updated my drivers, although I was running the latest already (doesn't
hurt to download them again), and that appears to have fixed it. It just
seems odd that it was only affecting the one game, and after applying the
last patch from EA.

I'm using the Radeon 9700 Pro at the moment. (X800 XT being ordered next
month)
