Don't know if this will help much, but have you guys installed the 1.52 patch yet?
If not it could be a possible solution.

Head on over to THIS THREAD for more info about the patches etc.

Hmm, I'm at a loss then...

I pulled this from the game FAQ:

“I receive a ‘Full screen mode not available’ error message.”

This error generally occurs if your system does not meet the minimum system requirements for the game, or if your drivers are not up to date. Please see the sections in this document regarding system requirements and updating your drivers for more information.

And if you go to the system requirements section:

To run Enter the Matrix, you must have:

Pentium 3 or AMD Athlon or Duron 800 MHz computer
Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, or XP
128MB of RAM
4.3 GB of hard drive space
A 4X CD-ROM drive
A 32MB NVidia GeForce 256 or ATI Radeon 8500*
A Windows-compatible sound card*

* Compatible with DirectX 9 or higher

Although the game will run with the system mentioned above, its performance may suffer under certain conditions. A system that has the following devices will run the game very well under most if not all conditions:

A 1.2 GHz Pentium 3 or AMD Athlon processor
256MB of RAM
An 8X CD-ROM drive
A 64 MB NVidia GeForce 3 or ATI Radeon 8500 or better video card*
A Sound Blaster Audigy series Sound card*


NOTE: Due to the DirectX requirements of this game, it will not work and is unsupported under Windows 95.
Also, this game was designed to be played with video cards based upon NVidia or ATI chipsets. Although other chipsets may or may not work, they are not supported by Atari Technical Support.


Doesn't help much, but you can try updating all video and sound drivers as well as ensuring you have the latest directx 9

Oh, yeah, just thought of something.

I've heard the latest nVidia detonator drivers (44.xx) are NOT completely compatible with old geforce2 cards
So install the 43.45 driver instead
