Sounds like an issue with your graphics driver. Did it ever work before for you? If so, think hard about the changes to your system you did in the meantime.

Plus, what are your system specs? What operating system, what graphics card?

(Tank, if you see this: move to support, please.)

Happened to me when I closed armagetronad using Task Manager or Powered it off before closing it. What that did was (somehow) change my screen resolution and window size to something my monitor couldnt support. To fix this, I went to my user.cfg and deleted these codes, and their values, in them

Code: Select all

  ARMAGETRON_LAST_SCREENMODE 
ARMAGETRON_LAST_SCREENMODE_H
ARMAGETRON_LAST_SCREENMODE_W
  ARMAGETRON_LAST_WINDOWSIZE
ARMAGETRON_LAST_WINDOWSIZE_H 
ARMAGETRON_LAST_WINDOWSIZE_W 
       ARMAGETRON_SCREENMODE
     ARMAGETRON_SCREENMODE_H 
     ARMAGETRON_SCREENMODE_W 
       ARMAGETRON_WINDOWSIZE 
     ARMAGETRON_WINDOWSIZE_H 
     ARMAGETRON_WINDOWSIZE_W 
Hope this helps :)
