    @NightHawkRider yea I know there is a thread about the dual gpu issue. I wonder if that is causing your issue. Have you tried taking your 1080Ti out to see if that is causing the settings problem?

@NightHawkRider try selecting "Monitor 1" in the "Fullscreen Device" setting. I'm pretty sure you need to set your monitor first before it will allow you to change the Fullscreen Mode setting. I recommend setting it to Borderless.

    @xxxC🤭lBr33zExxx If I click those arrows to the left or right the field in the middle stays blank for every single option in the picture.

      @NightHawkRider are you able to select Borderless in the first setting? If you're able to set it to Borderless, can you change any of the settings below it?

      You could always try setting it in the PROFSAVE_profile. This is found in the BF2042 folder that is in the My Documents folder. Open it with either Wordpad or Notepad and look for the setting "GstRender.FullscreenMode" and change it to "2" which is for borderless, save and go back into the game and see if your able to adjust any of the other settings.

      Have you tried to reinstall the GPU drivers? @NightHawkRider

        @EA_Atic Yup, just uninstalled previous drivers and reinstalled them to latest (497.29). Issue doesn't go away.
