How to Manually Change the Resolution of Call of Duty 6

"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2" is the sixth "Call of Duty" title released for the PC. Upon starting "Modern Warfare 2" for the first time, the game automatically sets your resolution. In some cases, the game might set a resolution you cannot support making the game unable to be viewed or changed. It is possible to manually set the resolution using the configuration files for the game so the game launches in the proper resolution, allowing you to access it.
