# Go to <code>%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM 3 BFG\base</code>. You will find a file called D3BFGConfig.cfg there.
 
−
# Open this file using notepad (right click and use the OPEN WITH command if you need to, and choose Notepad).
 
−
# Scroll down until you find a command line that says set r_fullscreen "1" . This is going to sound strange, but you want to change the 1 to a 3 (set r_fullscreen "3") and it should work. Save the CFG file and run the game. Within the game, be sure to make any resolution setting changes under "Monitor 3".
 
−
{{ii}} Some people may not be able to do this because the .cfg file isn't made till the game is run at least once. if you can't find the .cfg file try alternative solution.
