I tried both Normal Windowed mode and Maximized (assuming you meant to make the change on the icon properties). No good either way.

Ok, let's try this. Could you browse to your Documents folder and open up the game config file at "Documents\Almost Human\grimrock.cfg". In the file search for a line that says "displayMode = X" where X is a number (probably 1). Change the value 1 to 2 so that the line says "displayMode = 2". This should force on windowed mode.

same here

intel core e8500

ddr2 4gb

amd 4870

windows 7 64bit ultimate

never found that error on any other game.

error shows when intalling some microsoft vc redist (or something like that)

and for some reason error in system bar shows opera web browser icon

You sir, are a god. It worked and then I was able to also set it to Maximized with the game options screen and it now runs!

Ok, good to hear that! Note that if you want to get rid of the window borders you can try setting it to value 3 which means "borderless windowed mode".

Editing config file worked, can play windowed/borderless for now, thanks. Fullscreen *should* work though

Agreed. Perhaps you could help us out by giving some remote debugging assistance? May I contact you tomorrow by sending a PM so we could investigate this further?

Fix worked somehow game started and could enter options but could not reach apply button as was not visible

i closed game and changed again option to number 1 and resolution to 1920x1080 and this time started in fullscreen

resolution on cfg was previously somethingx599

Ok, thanks for the info. Seems like there is a problem detecting the correct fullscreen resolution on some systems.
