What to do
- Open w0a
- Go to the Fix page in the left menu
- Type
cs2into the search box - Press the button on the CS2 video settings card
What the card's answer means
After you press it, the card writes a line underneath. Which line you get decides your next step.
- "Fixed — N setting(s) put back to the Windows default." — this was the broken thing and it has been put back. If the problem continues, see below.
- "Nothing to fix — this was already at the Windows default." — these settings were never changed. Whatever you are seeing has another cause, and pressing this card again will not help.
- "Nothing to fix — this component is not installed on this PC." — the thing this card repairs is not present on this Windows. Your edition may not include it, or it may have been removed earlier.
- "Another repair is running." — only one card runs at a time, because several of them would undo each other's work. Wait for it to finish and press again.
What this card actually does
If CS2 will not start, shows a black screen, or its video settings look wrong, restores the copy w0a took before it first wrote to them. Windows has no default here — this file is your own settings, so with no backup nothing is done.
Every repair card writes back the Windows default unconditionally; it does not depend on a backup of w0a's own existing. So it also helps if some other tool was what changed your machine.
If it did not help
If the card said it fixed something and the problem is still there, these settings were not the cause. Write to us — tell us which card you ran and what it printed; the two together are what narrows it down.
