S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl

Black Screen Issue at Start Up solved (at least for me)
I think most of you heard about this issue, game starts up with black screen and the monitor displays an error message something like "out of range" or "not "supported resolution" or something similar.

At first I tried changing the settings in the user.ltx file with no success :avgnmad:
(btw. the user.ltx file utilized by the game is NOT in the _appdata_ folder, it's the one in the Documents & Settings !!! can't tell the path exactly cause I am running a german OS :P)

the reason why editing the config manually didn't work was that the path to the user.ltx is specified in the fsgame.ltx file, located in the games main directory and it was simply wrong!!!

I only had to put the correct path there and the game started using the user.ltx config file with the proper resolution that was set here!

I hope this helps some of you who are experiencing this issue
