So you have pressed play and the game isn't starting correctly. Here are some common symptoms and solutions:
First thing to try is simply pressing ALT + Enter keys (twice can be needed) , if this brings the game back, go into preferences and set the resolution settings again.
Press the [Windows] Key + [R] at the same time
Copy the following in to the text box and press ok
%localappdata%\swtor\swtor\settings
Open the client_settings.ini file in notepad and ensure the following are displayed within
Fullscreen = false D3DFullScreen = false RefreshRate = 60
Check NativeHeight, NativeWidth, Height and Width ( all 4 ) match your monitor resolution.
Save and close the file.
Start the game as normal.
Change graphic settings within the game as desired.
If your Launcher is via Steam:
See this link for directions
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars-The Old Republic\swtor and delete just the file called discachearena then start the launcher and login.
