I can load games just fine with 800x600 but 1024x768 and 1280x1024 CTD immediately. Any ideas?

I guess you have been looking deep in the tech support area already(?)

Sure it could be a something in the game, but it could likewise be something that the game developers may not be able to do anything about. If someone got a 'broken' driver and/or a 'broken' DirectX installation or whatever, it would be practically impossible to make the game fix that.
With some luck, a Windows tweak or two may fix your situation.

I fixed the problem. The settings program likes to write the following setting file:

2
1
0
"SCREEN_SIZE_X 1280"
"SCREEN_SIZE_Y 1024"
"MUSIC_OFF"
"europa.valkyrienet.com"

I changed it to this:
0
1
0
"SCREEN_SIZE_X 1280"
"SCREEN_SIZE_Y 1024"
"MUSIC_OFF"

Now it works . . .
"europa.valkyrienet.com"

Strange for two reasons:
1. I always run at 1280x1024 and my settings.cfg matches the first one you showed (i.e. as created by hoi_settings.exe).
2. I believe one of the beta/mods told me that the game didn't actually use those numbers, just the text entries.
