I have Windows XP SP3, NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT
On this i try to run C&C: Red Alert.  When i open RA95.exe it opens as a black window, and stays that until i terminate the process.
If i attempt to use the compatibility mode, it doesn't open at all, so i have to terminate the process with TaskMng.
Once it opened it ran at a very high speed for about 3 seconds, then crashed requiring be to terminate the process.
On some occasions of trying to run it, after terminating it i cannot open Task Manager, or shut down the computer or, indeed, launch any program apart from Opera.
I cannot run the program as administrator, i simply do not have that option even tough i am on the administrator account.
I have searched for help on the internet, the solutions did not help me.
This forum was my last resort.
Thank you for helping in advance.

I live in Latvia, and this country we basically suck at english.
This teacher thinks that "disguise" is pronounced "disgeeze" in america, pronounces "north" as "norse" and when i call her on it she says that "norse" has a D in it.

Should this teacher be allowed to teach?

When i try to launch Gmod 10 (Half-Life sandbox) i see VIDEO MODE NOT SUPPORTED in a gray-with-blue window thing, in front of black abyss.
I don't think it is relevant, but then i took a screenshot of it i saw this:

It's the start background of Gmod, but without the Menu, or version or anything, and with the bar at the bottom.

I know that this is entirely my fault, i messed with the resolution settings, and apparently set it to a mode with my monitor doesn't like.

Can any of you explain to me how do i reset the resolution?

Please don't make fun of me.

EDIT:
The thing where you edit the shortcut by adding -window, or -(resolution) has never worked for me, ever.

How many of you know magic tricks? Witch ones? Witch is your favorite type of tricks? Impromptu (with everyday objects)? Illusions? Card tricks?
It would be interesting for me and others to find out.

Don't reveal them tough. Unless you own the trick.
