Red Faced Warcraft 3 TFT Switch Resolution without starting the game

Hey

I was wondering, is there any way at all i can switch my resolution to 1280 x 1056 or whatever without starting up the game and do it the original way in Video Options?

My problem is that my Viewsonic VX922 got problems with other resolutions than its original 1280x1056, its a newer problem i used to be able to go in and play Counterstrike, team fortress, gunbound, sins of a solar empire WiC D2 you name it, it doesn't matter if its under 1280x1056 my screen turns off and starts blinking " on the bottom ;) "

it even happens when i start up the computer, i have to wait til it stands on my Windows login screen before i start the monitor else it doesn't work

in some cases like when i go into warcraft and do the campaign then when i get to some of the movies, then it simply turns off because it cant handle it... im not sure whats wrong with it, it used to be able show it....

Anyways, i reinstalled Warcraft 3 TFT the other day which means it starts up in 800x600, is there any way i can switch it over to 1280x1056 in a config file or something?

Hope you can help me out ;) sorry for my sloppy english

EDIT:

SPECS
ASUS P4V8X-MX
X1950 Pro AGP
1gb Geil SDDDR
1x Raptor 76gb HD
620 Watt PSU

I dont think its my PC though its my screen, tried to reinstall my PC and new drivers update of Direct X, Memtest and all that, ive tried the screen on 2 other PC's and found out the monitor had the same problem there so i guess its my monitor.

Roll Eyes Re: Warcraft 3 TFT Switch Resolution without starting the game

Nevermind found it.

CMD:

1: Regedit
2: Hkey_current_user\software\blizzard entertainment
3: Open Warcraft III
4: Video
5: Find "resheight" and "reswidth"
6: Change it to what you need.

kthxbye
