I can not find any location for the defualt prefs file for gforce 2.8 - I dont get it!!! some one please tell me were it is!!!

Two pointers:
1. I've found it less hazardous to edit the Prefs via the Prefs file and not the Boot doc. The latter is best for editing for certain media players, i.e. not the standalone.
...which leads me to ask...
2. What brand do you have (Mac or PC)?
If you have a Mac, you'll hafta do a generic G-Force search. There should be a Preferences folder in the Parent column. That's where you'll find the prefs file. Maybe someone here can offer specifics for PC users?
PS: Unfortunately I don't have a laptop either; so hopefully someone who has one here can give you a bit of luck as well.

Is there in the PC environs any similar way to do the kind of generic GF search that I mentioned before? Worse comes to worse, you might have to narrow down your search terms to "Prefs"...if you haven't done that already, that is?

right the problem under windows is that G-force saves specific prefs for each app its installed for.
So Where you need to be looking, under XP is
C:\Documents and Settings\Orbstah\G-Force\
Obviously Orbstah is my user name you need to change that to your user name.
In here you will find specific pref files for well for every player you installed for so the text file you are looking for in here is
Preferences (winamp).txt
The screen res is situated near the bottom.
Hope this helps any problems then just get back to me

I'll come to bed once i've seen everything in G-Force.

go to documents and settings, look in the application data folder for a G-force folder It should be there.
