i need help with an issue im having with this game. the game always worked just fine for me, but one day i decided that since i had a widescreen monitor i would change the games resolution to widescreen. as soon as i did that the screen in the game went black and empty and the game closed without warning or error message. i just recently got internet back and tried playing the game again. the game would load then go black as if switching to the game and just crash with no error message or anything. all my drivers are up to date but for some reason it still does this, and because of this i am unable to play the game at all. i believe it has to do with the games configuration files but i cannot find them. i believe its the config files bcuz all my other games work just fine and once i was able to play cs:s at a friends house using his monitor. if anyone can help me with this issue id greatly appreciate it.

i tried to adjust my desktop resolution but that had no effect. the only way i could adjust the resolution in the game is for it not crash which i cant do. i figure maybe if i find the existing config file i should be able to delete it and and get a default one. however i dont know where to find it. i already checked the steam folder and even deleted it, to no affect.

just go into your steam games and right click on counter-strike source, then click properties... go to set launch options and when a type box comes up type -h 600 -w 800
-h is the height in pixels, -w is the width in pixels
