Default Haven't been able to play L4D since installing 4890's

Whenever I try to play left 4 dead, the tv screen pops into "unsupported mode" which means it doesn't accept whatever resolution the game is trying to run at. This sucks because I can't even get into the game to change the resolution. Any ideas? I wasn't sure what section to put this in, but figured this would be the most appropriate.

Or navigate to here:

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead\left4dead\cfg

And find the video file, and open it with notepad, and change these two settings:

"setting.defaultres" "width"
"setting.defaultresheight" "height"

To whatever resolution you want and save it.
