    1) uninstall your game, reinstall (if this does the trick then stop)
    2) right click on desktop> properties> hit the settings tab> then the advanced button> hit the trouble shoot tabe> make sure in this new tab that video acceleration is fully enabled. (if this was your problem then stop and reinstall the game)
    3) boot in safe mode> mycomputer right click properties> hardware tab> device manager> you will find your graphic card driver and uninstall it> reboot and the computer will probpmt you to install the driver for it> if not then control panel> printers and other hardware> add new hardware

    during step 3 your computer screen will act "funky", it will be distorted and perhaps even the colors obscure, dont worry, after step 3 redo step 2

    Yeah those tricks didn't work but i found a way around it by using my N-vidia controll panel but it still wont let me through the game , And also when i right click on my desktop and go to vid settings to S-video to my T.V. it only show's me 1 the monitor that im using and the N-vidia controll panel don't give me anything either like no option , and it does have the port on the card too , I just dont understand that but thanx for the help anyway !
