    Far Cry 4 Could Not Find Suitable Display Options

    I just purchased Far Cry 4 the other day, and it was working fine until last night. It crashed my computer, and after I rebooted it the game would launch, but you could only hear the game. The game itself wouldn't show up on my monitor. So after prowling fourms that turned up nothing to fix it, I decided to mess around with the settings in gamerprofile.xml

    Which failed spectacularly. Now, Far Cry 4 doesn't even get past the splash screem, crashing with the error "Could Not Find Suitable Display Options!". So I tried deleting gamerprofile.xml and reverifying the files through steam, but steam didn't detect any files missing or corrupted, so that didn't work. Next, I tried deleting the Far Cry 4 folder from My Documents (where gamerprofile.xml is located) and reverifying, which again didn't work. So finally, I reinstalled the game last night, hoping it would be fixed. But alas, my disappointment when I tried launching the game, and getting the same damn error, "Could Not Find Suitable Display Options!".

    Any help would be most appreciated!

    This is the error, btw: http://imgur.com/a/NxJRY

    Wow, ok, nevermind I guess?? All I had to do was switch it from my VGA monitor to my HDMI monitor. So, uh, if you have the same problem, I guess just use an HDMI monitor.
