Whenever I try to change my resolution, it goes to a blackscreen and my pointer starts to flicker. Then when I control+alt+delete, it minimizes (its the only way I can minimize it) and there are usually 5 windows open in the game. I don't know why this is happening. I don't want to play the game on 800x600 on a 1080p monitor. Any help would be appreciated.

Try editing it through your config_m2.cfg

Which line would I change?

same problem here... had it on both cod6 and cod4, but anyways here is how you can fix it:

 

1. type in the console "/r_fullscreen 0; vid_restart"

2. change your resolution

3. and then you type in "/r_fullscreen 1;vid_restart"

 

if that doesn't work then do the following thing:

 

1. go to the players folder in your modern warfare 2 and then open config_mp.cfg

2. press ctrl + f and search for r_mode

3. and there you can change the resolution

 

hopefully this has helped you
