    Could you please update your drivers if they are old ones and you can try editing the resolution manually.

    Ok then try this
    You can force that resolution by creating a file called locale.ini in the FIFA 10 directory and adding this line to it: RESOLUTION = 1280x800x32( what you want)

    to create the file:
    Open notepad
    Add the RESOLUTION line above
    save the file as locale.ini in the C:\Program Files\EA Sports\FIFA 10\ directory, and change 'save as type' to 'all files'

    Some Demo's (Developers) will limit the resolution or ultra visuals on their trial games.

    The full game will support 900P, 1080P for sure.

    Though there should be a way of cracking it as mentioned above, it's usually only an artificial limit.

    I can easily max out on 1920 X1200 on demo so it must be some problem with his system. Anyway, try the steps and let us know.
