Not letting me open up the original C&C now in any resoultion. Red alert 2 works fine now. Edit: Generals also works but zero hour claims my directX is not correct. Im running directX11. Are the yuris revenge files in the RA2 folder? What are they called because im not seeing them.

I saw the files and changed them to the 1920x1080 but now its just a tiny box in the middle of my screen and the rest is all black.

Would I of had to hide the extensions myself or is it something the patch did. I have not touched anything in there.

If you can explain to me how to take and post a screenshot I will. Im not that good with computors mostly the files and all of that that lurks in a game. Can you please try to explain what you mean by edit the ra2.ini and ra2md.ini files. I did everything that Doctor Destiny said to do with the post to nyerguds fixes. Oddly enough I just tryed generals again for the hell of it in 1024 x 768 and it loaded a video about carpet bombs tomahawk missles and stuff and then went to a screen with blue tanks and humvees fighting off green buggys and then finally loaded. Same with zero hour. Edit: I don't see the ra2.ini and ra2md.ini files. I do see ra2. Ra2.lcf, ra2.mix, Ra2.tlb, ra2md.lcf, and ra2md.mix. Sorry for rambling but im not sure what all that means or if any of its redundant but they looked similar without the .ini ending on them. Edit: With all the tiberian wars games and the older red alerts its just a tiny portion of the screen that is cut off in 1024 x 724. Also does the mouse move extremely fast for anyone, like unplayable fast? The colors were gone except for red alerts videos which had some strange distoration and colors. The tiberian wars games videos were ok.

For tiberian dawn, covert operations, red alert, aftermath, counterstrike, tiberian sun, and firestorm I can get them to run if I set my resoultion down low enough. No matter what I put it on the edges still get cut off. I usually run in 1920 x 1080 since I use my tv as my moniter. Red alert 2 and yuris revenge will run just fine no problems at all except for having the remaining screen size as a black box if I put my resoultion in 1024 x 768 but those games support that in the options menu so I guess that makes sense. Generals and zero still do not start at all.

After going though most of the patching which I think I did right (except the red alert music one) I got it to play but only on certain resoultions and with really odd colors. Help?

I just updated my drivers at the AMD website yesterday and my comp says I have directx 11. When I get back from work I will try the steps above. Thanks for the help I hope to play with some of you soon

Thanks for that. Its getting late so I'm gonna turn in for work tomorrow. I will be checking that out though. On a side note I called EA and they gave me C&C 4 for free on Origin and Origin will not even download the game. It takes forever and then goes from 95 to 70. And then it goes past 100. I'm not even sure how that's possible but it adds more then what the game contains. When it finally finished my anti virus popped up saying it had some problems. Anyone else have any exp with Origin. Its horrible so far.

I tried both. Each time it nothing pops up but I can see it running in my taskbar. And if I drag my cursor over it I can see it disappear and then reappear once I take it away from were the screen should be. How do I run compatability mode as a admin I only see the option to do one at a time.

Running as admin lets me see the screen but It still gives me unable to set video mode. I have tried compatibility mode and it brings it up but I cannot see it. If I hover my mouse over where it should be my mouse disapperars and then comes back after I leave the area. How do I run it in compatibility mode as a admin.

Regenade is the only game of the 12 that works. When I try to play any of the others one it says Error: Unable to set video mode. Generals attempts to start up and then just freezes.

Well I bought it from EA hoping to finish what I did not when I was a child. Problem is windows 7. I just downloaded the unoffical patch and was ready to play and now im stuck. Please help.
