Star Trek Bridge Commander help needed

For the past week I have been unable to play or even open Star Trek Bridge Commander, after I accidentally tried to set the game resolution too high, even after uninstalling the game find the advice I got online which was to go into the options and and even wiping my computer it still doesn't have any effect.

I've tried everything and it still gives me that damn black screen.

D3D Render Creation Error
Error string from renderer was:
"Creation failed: desired fullscreen display mode not supported"
 
I've been using the BC Remastered mod for a while now. Have not had any issues. I just followed the instructions. I have the original disc version.

==INSTALLATION==

1. Install the stock version of Bridge Commander either from your original disc or from the newly released GOG version.
2. If you use the GOG version, skip to step 4.
3. If you are using the original disc, Install the 1.1 patch available here: https://www.moddb.com/games/star-tr...ownloads/star-trek-bridge-commander-v11-patch.
4. Go to your Bridge Commander installation directory and DELETE the "data", "scripts", and "sfx" folders.
5. Copy the contents of the "Bridge_Commander_Remastered" zip folder into your Bridge Commander installation directory.
6. Download the universal 4GB Address Aware Patch here: https://ntcore.com/?page_id=371
7. Run the 4GB Patch file, and select the stbc.exe in your Bridge Commander installation location to apply the patch.
8. Run the game.
9. If your desktop supports 1920x1080 resolution, the game will start with that display setting automatically. If not, editing of "options.cfg" with Notepad++ is required to manually adjust the resolution to your preference. 1280x1024 and 1600x1200 are alternative supported resolutions.
