Hey @ro7hbard,

Have you already tried to rename the BF2042 folder in your My Documents folder on your PC? That way, the game can rebuild the settings file, which usually fixes a lot of these issues.

    @ro7hbard  just rename the old folder to test if this fix youre issue !
    If not , then you could delete the new folder and rename the old folder again.

    Not that hard !!!
    Cheers

    @ro7hbard, do you want to try to do any sort of troubleshooting steps? If not, then I am afraid that there's nothing we, or other forum members, can help you with.

      OK say I reset the configuration files and it doesn't happen, will that be considered the fix? 

      I'd rather not have to rebuild the settings, if I can remove some graphics related options from the configuration file that would be preferable.
