New Computer Reinstall Help

Post by morganbj »

Just got a new WIn 7 computer and am trying to migrate my games. After I install AE and try to execute the game from the little splash screen, it says "Error: Can't set screen mode."

I'm using a Samsung TV with a pc interface in its tuner over an hdmi cable. Does that matter?

Well, got it to work by playing around with the switches, but the symbols in the playing screen are quite small. I only have two settings for the TV resolution and the lower one still yields the same error message as above. So, I guess I'm stuck with tiny symbols. I can tough it out.

Take a look it the game readme files for the switches. There might be one or two that will help. Others will chime in with better info if they had a similar issue. GP
