UInt32 launcher bug

[wilifal]

So I recently switched over graphics cards.

Now when I try to change the graphics settings in the launcher the bug:

"An unhandled exception has occurred. Details are as follows:

Value was either too large or too small for UInt32."

wut

There was another thread on it for Win7 (I'm on Win with the same problem but there were only some suggestions as to how to possibly fix the problem in very vague detail. I've been looking all around for a solution but I can't seem to find a fix.

plz

Hiya,
more likely than not the uninstaller for your prior video card drivers left some "crumbs" on your PC.

Download the newest drivers for your new GPU.
Download and install Treexy's Driverfusion free. Driver Fusion - Update, manage and monitor drivers & devices
Run Driverfusion.
uninstall just your old graphics card's drivers.
REBOOT PC.

Run Driverfusion.
uninstall just your oNEW graphics card's drivers.
REBOOT PC.

On Win8 you might get the "new hardware wizard to isntall your GPU drivers on reboot, do NOT let the auto install option start.

Install your newest drivers for your new GPU.

then go Play PR

Got the same here.

Running Win XP

I cannot change video settings due to Critical error if I press "apply" in launcher. Happens also if I even dont change any settings and just press "apply".

Anyone knows if the "DRIVER FUSION" solution fixed it? Thanks for helping.




Here comes the log:

PRLauncher->Options-.Bottom Left Reset All Profiles button.
Click Apply.

If it crashes again, you have your Documents\ProjectReality\Profiles directory and subdirectories set to Read ONly. You need to remove the Read only option by right clicking the directories and removing the Read ONly tickbox, click 'Apply or OK' and then restart PRlauncher and try again.

I tried...doesnt help


"DRIVER FUSION"
I tried...also doesnt help

In XP it is not possible. The files and folders are not explicitly ReadOnly. Instead there is a green Square. If you google that everybody writes, that you cannot get rid of that. It doenst also mean they are readonly. It is Windows-specific and will always be there whatever you do (I even installed Software to override that and eliminate it, but it is not possible.)

I just want to change my graphic settings. I have a 1920*1080 screen which is correctly set in the launcher but the game menus and maps look vertically distorted. So I want to reduce the resolution hoping to get a display that is not vertically distorted. Is there another way to do so? If I would do it in BF2 vanilla would that change the PR video settings as well?

Thanks for the help

OK I found a workaround:

1.Adjust video settings in launcher.
2. Select "Close".
3. Launcher asks if you want to save the changes. Click Yes (Save)
4.Critical error will happen, but values are saved and next time launcher is started the new selected values are used.
