    Hey,I downloaded and installed the Lost Planet demo yesterday, everything in the installation process went smooth. The game said it installed successfully. When I try to run it a error appears in a black screen before the game launches "Invalid mode 1280x720

    I started to google the problem and it appears this error is quite common with the demo. Apparently Capcom did something wrong and did not create a config file during installation from what I've read? The solution to the problem is to force your own configuration file and turn fullscreen off and place it in the aforementioned folder.

    I already have the custom config file that I found during the google search, but the problem I have now is that I don't know what or where the "aforementioned folder" is. Where can I find that?? I have to copy the custom config into some folder but, I don't know which or where to find it. Apparently this folder will open in note pad allowing me to paste the custom config into it.

    Any help would be appreciated thanks in advance.
