This is because you installed it into "C:\Program Files\..."
Battlefield is an old game and Windows 10 is highly restricted in "Program Files".
So install old Games into C:\Games\OldgameXX
...
mmm no... my folder is:
"D:\dal pc vecchio\Battlefield 1942 HDx\BF1942.exe"
no program files folder whatsoever...

Missing 800x600 Resolution for the InGameMenu i guess.
Look first if you can activate 800x600 otherwise add a custom resolution 800x600.

Btw. Activating global Adminrights on Windows 10 is realy a bad idea.
Just Bf1942.exe and Blackscreen.exe need admin rights and the best is not to install the game into "ProgrammFiles", but as example C:\Games \Gamename as you should do it with older games.

Cool man! I love you! that did the trick...
"3. Use Custom Resolutions/Modes for Intel Graphics driver"
I set a custom resolution in the Intel panel (nvidia control panel only shows 3d settings) to 800x600 60p htz.
The game started... but I think I will uninstall and install it again as I messed around a lot with .con settings and the bf1942.exe
Seems a bit slow, mouse very sensitive, framerate a bit low... any suggestion?
I can see Simple servers though...

every file with extension .con inside the MODS folder I edited the resolution line this way:
game.setGameDisplayMode 1024 768 32 60
my game folder is :
"D:\dal pc vecchio\Battlefield 1942 HDx\BF1942.exe"
Im trying to make the HD version work.

oh and I also activated admin profile on win10, the black screen just a bit longer...
