hiho, had exactly same problem some weekks ago.
im not sure but i think you still must write into console:

/vid_restart

so all in all you have to write:

/set r_mode -1
/set r_customheight
/set r_customwidth
/vid_restart

/seta r_mode -1
/seta customwidth x
/seta customheight x
/rate 40000
/cl_maxpackets 100

Anyhow the best solution to keep those settings is to replace the original templates into etconfig (et directiroy --> no quarter --> profiles --> etconfig) and in the same way to avoid video restarting

Remember to unmark "save only" if it is marked, that way any changes made in console won't save into the configuration path

I used option from
http://www.prime-squadron.com/modules.p ... ic&t=10163

and added those commands into shortcut path and it works fine.

Now got another question :)

Is there some et minimizer for windows 7?

I use that one: ETWindowControl and works perfect with Win 7 Ultimate x64
