    Hello, Im having a problem where my game runs fine at 60hz, but when i up it to my monitors refresh rate the game just crashes. Ive even tried just moving up to 70hz and the game crashes at that too. Ive tried repairing my dedicated server through steam with no luck, anyone that can help?

              @scowler Try finding the setting in the config and change it. That might help

                @scowler

                Change your video settings without crashing the game (borderless windowed)
                Make sure your game is closed before doing that.
                Go to where your Modern Warfare 3 is installed and go in the players2 folder.
                Then open plutonium.cfg with the notepad to edit it.
                Find r_displayMode and change it to be like this (you can use ctrl+f to search for it):
                seta r_displayMode "windowed (no border)"
