The menu for Red Alert 2 doesn't show when I run it on my Windows 7 PC. Is there a fix? The game runs if I just hit enter blindly but, since I can't see any of the menu options, I can't choose what...
That looked like it might work. It seems to describe my problem. Unfortunately, no luck yet. RA2 and YR still show notihng in the menu buttons. Thank you for your help.
And can you follow these instructions?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tMxSELxEH8.
Or is it the same?
That was a great suggestion. Unfortunately, I still can't get it to work. The part that I can't do using either suggestion is to detect a second monitor. I'm using a desktop and it only detects that monitor. Maybe that has someting to do with it.
Thanks for your help.
And maybe you can try this:
Hit the Apply button and start Red Alert 2 and/or Yuri's Revenge.
Yes, I tried that with the other two methods. Nothing happens when I click Detect.
Thanks for your suggestion.
There's a kind of workaround: Alt-tab out of the game and then Alt-tab in again and you'll see the menu.
Thanks. I did that. It's just hard to use the pull down menus when you can't see the choices.
So you mean that Alt-tab doesn't resolve the problem?
Yes, the alt-tab does work as a work around but it's really time consuming. Especially if you have to use the drop down menus to change the settings.
Thank you for your suggestion.
