Return To Castle Wolfenstein - Problems with new TFT-monitor!

Hello there!

I just bought a new digital 17'' TFT monitor for my computer, and everything is working perfectly except one thing.

All of y games work perfect except Return To Castle Wolfenstein. When I start the game, the screen just turns black, and wont show the game, even though I can hear the background music.

I suspect that my new screen's resoulution is higher than the one I have in the game, but how can I change the game's resoulution if I cant see anything?

Are there any commands/scripts/parametres I can use to change the resoultion in the game without starting it, or is it another problem?

Thank you!

That will happen if the resolution in the game is set higher than what the monitor supports. Wolfenstein has a Safe Mode. Try that and if you can get into the game lower the resolution.
