Re: Red Alert 2 Black Screen

@rptyner You might want to mention what the things you downloaded were.

Generally, I advise installing the CnCNet online play installer for RA2/YR. Even if you're not interested in online play, it comes with a bunch of automatic fixes. It should automatically take care of the "black screen" issue, and has a configuration tool that allows further tweaking of the game's settings.

These are issues that were never fixed by EA, but are fixed through community patches, so honestly, going to EA tech support with them is fairly useless.
