I'm posting this over the Steam forums and here as well, someone might be able to help me out with this.
 
 
Ok so ever since I went for Windows 7, i get this strange problem with the screen resolution for Dawn of War 2.

When I start the game, it defaults at a resolution of 1200 something by something. Can't remember exactly what it is ( not at home right now ). I want to change it to my resolution which is 1680x1050.

Every time i try to do this now, the screen goes all black, but i do get the "do you want to keep this resolution" window. If i click yes, it stays black and nothing happens.

After a few tests it's doing this for every other resolution other than the default one.

Also, i changed my graphics card recently, going from a geforce 8800 gts to a geforce 260gtx and its doing this on both cards.

I think it's gotta be either the 191 drivers from NVIDIa or a windows 7 thing.

Anyone can help me? I can still play but the resolution sucks.
