PC crashes on WoW startup

So I downloaded the wotlk client and everytime I run it (I ran it normally first, then as administrator, then W7 compatibility mode, same result) my PC crashes. I just get a black screen. I cant alt+F4 ot ctrl+alt+del or anything. Black screen and that's it.

I think it *might* be that my monitor doesn't support the default resolution, since it's an old plasma monitor. I've tried updating my video drivers and nothing.

How can I change resolution from outside the game if there is not config.wtf file? What else can I do to make the game work?

Thanks in advance !

You can create a WTF\Config.wtf yourself by simply using a notepad. Give the configuration below a go, otherwise I will copy-paste you my entire config:

It worked ! I just changed the resolution on the config you posted to my monitor's native resolution. Thank you very much! I can finally play now.
