you can play afterwards

sw battlefront was great before all the hackers came and ruined it...same with socom, they need to patch these things or something they have completely ruined the mp

i also was playing last night just fine and had a problem where steam thought it was in compatibility mode which it wasnt and i had to delete something in a registry file...thats when i got this video mode not supported..

I finally figured it out. I went to the steam support page and did this: Force a Video Mode Follow these instructions to configure your video mode and resolution before launching a game: Important: If you are forcing a refresh rate on your system (this is not recommended), you will need to ensure that you specify the forced refresh rate in the launch options. 1. Open Steam 2. Go to the "My Games" tab 3. Right-click the game which needs to be reconfigured 4. Select "Properties" from the menu 5. Click the "Set launch options..." button 6. Add -gl at the end of the line, be sure to include a space before the " - " and anything before it. 7. Specify the appropriate Video Mode and Video Option switches from the lists below Video Mode Launch Options Use the -w # switch (where " # " is a number from the list below) to specify the display resolution: * 640 (640x480) GoldSource Only * 720 (720x576) * 800 (800x600) * 1024 (1024x768) - This mode offers the best performance for most cards * 1152 (1152x864) * 1280 (1280x1024) - This mode is optimal for high-end cards * 1600 (1600x1200) - This mode requires a high-end monitor and a high-performance card I used the 1024. Works great. Thanks for your help.bubbabigsexy

worked for me also but now i notice when i go to settings in the game and click recomended settings it goes to 1600x1200 which i think is too much for my monitor or my vid card 9800gt
