Far Cry 2 Irritation
I've seen people try to fix this problem on other forums and I'm wondering if it's a Windows 7 thing as most people seem to avoid giving advice on W7 except on here.
Basically 2 out of 3 times the game starts in windowed mode despite all efforts to correct it. I've presently got it starting from a shortcut which specifies maximised in it's properties, the game itself is running at full screen resolutions and the startup file it uses is set to full screen and maximised and I've set it to read only after having the little sucker keep resetting itself (one reason I think it may be a Win7 problem).
Any help would be cool as it's frustrating when you want to play for "a little while" (ie intend say 20 minutes and play for 4 hours) to have to argue to get the darned thing started right.
Oh and if anyone knows why this game may keep crashing to desktop after about 4 hours play time, I'd be really grateful (it's not overheating, running out of memory or having a conflicting program start up as far as I'm aware).
Thanks.
