BF2 Custom resolution [RESOLVED]

Ive got a resolution of 1176x664 and BF2 doesnt support it.. If i launch the games it will crash on startup...
I looked up some sites and they said add this +szx 1176 +szy 664 to the shortcut for BF2.. Now this works on XP but in Vista the game still crashes and startup. Am i missing anythink.

Re: BF2 Custom resolution

that is a very odd resolution!could you list the brand,and model of your monitor?maybe if you would move the resolution up,or down a step it may work.

Re: BF2 Custom resolution

Its a TV not a monitor... It can support a resolution of 1366x764. But if i set the resolution to that most of the screen is chopped off. The best resolution for me is 1176x664. All other games work fine.... I might try and delete my profile folder and start the game again see if that makes any difference..
