Can't run?

I just got soldat on my computer and every time I double click the icon, it flashes the profile screen and then automatically quits out

First of all, this belongs in the Need Help? Section. 

To help you with your problem, I need to ask you, are you using Windows Vista?  People who use that operating system usually have this problem.

Try running it in a video compatibilty format.  Go to Soldat's setup and the "More" section and check "Video Compatibility".

Try the force software option then.  It's located in the same tab as the Video Compatibilty option.

It turns out, that I can only run soldat when it is set to "deticated server"

How do I fix this?

Go to Soldat's configuration and set dedicated server to "0".  You said it'll only run while in a windowed format.  As of now, I see that as your only option.

Now, I can't get it into windowed anymore :/  but when it worked in windowed mode, I still had dedicated on.

Now when you say put dedicated 0,  do you mean uncheck the box, or find an actual value and change it to 0

It's in the configuration, reset the value to 0.  There's nothing to uncheck.
