    what's that use for video? if you go
    control panel -> display -> adaptor tab
    it should say there, all i could suggest is update drivers for whatever chip that uses and contact support to see if there's a way to reset video to default settings.

    What's your video card? Ultra is disabled on mine but the drop down menus list ultra texture settings.

    I'd guess the reason is the ultra texture settings would use more memory than your card has but I can't see in your computer from here so it's just a guess. There's a blog post at the .com site where one of 'em details how much memory will be used by each setting at each resolution.

    Oh, bet you could bump up the quality at a lower resolution if it is a video card memory limit reason.
