hi,
i know this has been asked before and a variety of fixes have been offered. i have tried the .bat file and the down-loadable program neither seem to work i am still reset to 800x600 every time i launch the game either through ASE or normally.
can anyone help - its really annoying 
PS my bat file looks like this:
del etmain\profiles
ew\profile.pid
del shrubet\profiles
ew\profile.pid
del etpro\profiles
ew\profile.pid
del shrubmod\profiles
ew\profile.pid
et.exe %*
your batch file looks ok, have you got an autoexec.cfg file in your ET folder which specifies the mode to use

U can simply override com_crash error using autoexec.cfg.
Open ur etconfig.cfg and copy all lines ending “unsafe” to autoexec.cfg and delete the “unsafe” mark from each line. Save & play.
Example:
etconfig.cfg
…
seta r_smp “0” unsafe
seta r_mode “8” unsafe
seta r_depthbits “24” unsafe
seta r_stencilbits “0” unsafe
seta r_stereo “0” unsafe
seta r_colorbits “32” unsafe
seta r_texturebits “32” unsafe
seta r_clampToEdge “1” unsafe
seta r_ext_texture_env_add “1” unsafe
seta r_nv_fogdist_mode “GL_EYE_RADIAL_NV” unsafe
seta r_ext_NV_fog_dist “0” unsafe
seta r_ext_texture_filter_anisotropic “0” unsafe
seta r_ati_fsaa_samples “1” unsafe
seta r_ati_truform_pointmode “GL_PN_TRIANGLES_POINT_MODE_LINEAR” unsafe
seta r_ati_truform_normalmode “GL_PN_TRIANGLES_NORMAL_MODE_LINEAR” unsafe
seta r_ati_truform_tess “1” unsafe
seta r_ext_ATI_pntriangles “0” unsafe
seta r_glIgnoreWicked3D “0” unsafe
seta r_ext_compiled_vertex_array “1” unsafe
seta r_ext_multitexture “1” unsafe
seta r_ext_gamma_control “1” unsafe
seta r_ext_compressed_textures “1” unsafe
seta r_allowExtensions “1” unsafe
seta r_glDriver “opengl32” unsafe
…

thanks guys
so when you say autoconfig.cfg, i take it i create an autoconfig file with teh not unsafe information in it. where do i place this?
thanks again.
g
think i have it sorted now - i used this instead in my .bat file:
C:
cd “\program files\wolfenstein: enemy territory”
del /s profile.pid
One faster way with autoexec - copy etconfig.cfg to the same folder, rename the copy to “autoexec.cfg”, open it, remove everything except the lines marked unsafe and delete the unsafe marks.
