I already tryed to change the user.dat by myself but when I logged in it changed back to 1400x1050.. Is there any solution, cause I hate to play on a lower resolution than 1920x1080..

Had to search through a lot of driver versions, compatibility modi while installing and stuff and now that I finally got the resolution working again on my PC I am not able to play daoc that way grrr Also checked if the resolution needs to be added manually to my registry but it was already there in the DALnonStandardxxx

Setting the laptop to only display on the external would rule out problems with the monitor, but i suspect its a driver issue.
