Red Alert 2 Unable to set video mode error on windows 10
I bought the c&c ultimate collection and I got all the games to work except red alert 2. yuri's revenge works but not the base game. I been trying all day but all it says is "error: unable to set video mode" I have windows 10.
my operating sys is:
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6400 CPU 2.71GHz
Ram: 8gb
System type: 64-bit Operating Sys,x64- based processor
any help would be appreciative
@ParkAir024 Hey, can you try the steps in this post?
As well as the 16-bit color mode, you might want to try Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode too.i've also seen that some folks can fix this by adding a small edit to the RA2.ini file.
it can be found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Command and Conquer Red Alert II and the fix is to add "VideoBackBuffer=no" without quotes to the [Video] section.
Thanks.
