I would also suggest to make the ini files read-only, but only after you set all your other options how you want them. If you don't set to read only it can revert to the original values depending on what menus you try to access while playing. Just make sure that every time the game boots you're quick to press enter so that the "OK" on the dialogue that pop ups telling you it can't save the ini file (since it's read only and it tries to save it with changed values) is pressed, if you take too long to do that the game will try to boot with the default values again I believe (which is why it crashed for that other guy still I guess). This stuff is vital for me because older games often completely mess up my desktop arrangement if they boot in anything different to my desktop resolution (1440p atm). So for SWAT4 in particular the first time I set it up I make sure to close every other program that has a window on the desktop to ensure positioning doesn't get messed up, boot into the game, set up my controls and any other options to how I want them, then close the game, edit the resolution values in the ini files of the game and the expansion to 1440p which is normally not supported by the game, set the files to read only and then proceed to use my PC as normal making sure I click the dialogue every time I play.
