I was playing the half life 2 demo I downloaded of steam. Next I was playing and it was going just fine. I hit escape and saw the option menu. I clicked on it. Next I went over to screen setting I think. There it had options of what screen settings you wanted such as 1024* 1024 those types of settings. I then clicked the biggest one and it now flashes back and forth between black and white.

-width [pixels] -height [pixels]: Using these two commands you can set a custom resolution in Pixel Width x Pixel Height (e.g. -width 800 -height 600 starts HL2 with 800x600esolution). Make sure you choose a resolution supported by your monitor and with the correct ratio of width to height (usually 4:3).
