Unable to set mode

[evil^milk]

I'm here in a friend's house trying to run CSS...

His comp is ok for cs, his graphics card isn't (GeForce mx 440). Everything works (or worked fine until now) in 800 x 600 with low textures and such, but then he decides to tinker around the resolution and texture qualities...

So we set the resolution to 1600 x 1200 or so, and it becomes buggy, so we ctrl alt del CSS and decide to run it again...

and now we get the error:

Engine error: Unable to set mode.

so... is there a way we can set the resolution back to 800 x 600 without running CSS? Because now we can't start css at all...

Yeah, check the registry settings


Regedit->Source(search for it if you can't find it) and then you should be able to pinpoint the width and height.

Regedit - Current User > Software > Valve >

Delete the folder there called Source, resets CSS to defaults.

However i think adding -autoconfig as a custom launch setting works to.
