Hi! I just change my OS from XP to Win7 and... can't run HAWX at 5040x1050 anymore! If switch my single 32" LCD and chack it as main monitor - no problem! But no 5040x1050!
When I'm trying to run the game I can see it's ico on win panel in the bottom, I can hear sound of it's intro but klicking on it have no effect at all! I just stay on the desktop and thats all!

HAWX have native support of TH so what is the problem!? :evil:

You're probably trying to run HAWX in DX10 mode, which does not work at 5040x1050 using TH2G because of the not-quite-60Hz refresh rate.
Running the game at any single-screen resolution and activating DX9 mode from the graphic options should fix the problem ;)

Hmm I know about DX10 so start HAWX with DX9 .exe with no result!
Just minute ago I tried your suggestion - run HAWX on a single screen, change options to DX10 - off, restart in TH... no result... :(
Any ideas?

To be more specific I must tell that game don't crushes! It just minimize, in the sense of what TH2G normally does when it doesn´t know what to do with the resolution, when i click on the icon - goes back to the game for a sec and again minimizes...
