I'm having a problem with my monitor too. I bought Strong Bad Season 1 on Steam and so far I've installed episodes 1 and 2 but whenever I try to launch either of them the monitor goes dark and pops up a message saying "Not Recommended Mode. Recommended Mode 1440x900 60hz". Does running the Strong Bad game do anything to change the refresh rate of the video output? Any other idea why this might happen? I am using Windows Vista Home, a Samsung widescreen LCD monitor, and an Nvidia 8800GTX. The monitor and computer seem fine otherwise and I have the latest Nvidia drivers. Also I can hear the game audio fine but no picture due to this problem. I've tried forcing the game to run in a low resolution by right-clicking the executable and selecting "Run in 640x480" but it doesn't help.
