I can't set my screen resolution. I'm stuck on the VGA mode. My driver and software are 'best' available depending on the diagnosis. Can I change the resolution in 'safe' mode but it is not XP.

  • Windows 7 changes the screen resolution when video applications go full screen.

    When I have plenty of screen some video players, that the resolution of the screen on just the ordinary 1080 p 1080 p (native) that has a refresh rate of 60 hz. As soon as I exit full screen it activates again. Would be nice but when it switches the screen is no longer fits the screen and the user interface looks very grainy, the video actually looks very good. Windows Media Player 12 for this, while VLC does not, which leads me to believe its something to do with the way that Windows Media Player makes video (which I think it uses Direct x, which uses VLC OpenGL).  I have this problem on my computer and my brothers computer I customized built. The specifications are very similar, other that my computer has an Nvidia GTS 250, and has a Nvidia GTX 275.  Is there anyway to stop it from doing this?

    Data sheet:

    Intel Core i7 clocked at 2.66 Ghz

    6 GB of ram

    ASUS P6T SE LGA 1366 Intel X 58 ATX Intel Motherboard


    Just in case people always have a problem with this problem, pls here's a solution that worked for me...

    I spent the last month trying to solve this problem, and "youemailme" (another thread here) had the correct solution for me! And so Simple!

    I noticed on Blogs that this problem has existed for at least Win98 is not your computer or your operating system.

    The question seems to be programs in your Menu has a different screen resolution to set startup, thereby causing the screen resolution change when you start your computer. This isn't a MicroSoft program error, but rather a question of "settings".

    With me, what worked were 2 things:

    (1) perform the 'clean boot process' as advised by many to determine which granted software was causing the problem... and then.

    (2) right click on the name of the program (as discovered in above) 'problem' in the Start Menu > properties > compatibility.  For some reason, there is an option to "run in 640 x 480 screen resolution", which has been verified.  This program was in the startup folder and the cause of the problem.  Then unchecked the resolution box. No problem.

    In my view, there are a large number of people dealing with this exact problem. I hope that this process of step 2 could solve their problems.

    (ps, just thinking about it now, you might not even bother with the 'clean boot process' but simply go through all your programs in your Start Menu and run the 2nd step explained above. Should work?)

    See you soon

    Hi , Sideria,

    Thanks for posting in the Forum the Microsoft community.

    I understand from your description you want to change the resolution of the screen.

    To change the Screen resolution, do the following:

    Step 1: Right click on the desktop and select Screen Resolution screen resolution window.

    Step 2: You can see the current screen resolution then the resolution box. If the resolution is less than 1024 x 768 pixels, you can set a higher resolution, if your PC supports. To change the resolution in progress, click resolution box and select a higher resolution.

    Thanks for any help

    Hello

    > I am disappointed to see the SHIFT key (left) and the CTRL pressed, causing the screen to go black intermittently when you type my blog...

    What does this mean exactly? Press SHIFT and CTRL button turn off the display, and you are not able to see anything on the monitor?
    Is this good?

    Have you checked if this happens with the help of an external USB keyboard too?
    If this isn't the case, I guess that your keyboard is malfunctioning and needs to be replaced.

    One of my friends had a problem with my keyboard. The cursor jumped around and some characters are displayed two times this could be resolved by the BIOS update I m do not know if your laptop uses the latest version of the BIOS, but you can check this too.

  • Unable to save the screen resolution settings

    I have Windows 7 Ultimate and just updated my monitor that supports 1920 x 1080 resolution.  I changed the resolution 1920 x 1080 and click on apply and OK.  When I log off and back on or restart the machine the screen resolution dates back to 1680 x 1050, which was my old monitor resolution.  My monitor is correctly identified by brand and model in the advanced settings and resolution of 1920 x 1080 is always available, Windows just won't save!

    I can make a permanent change in the registry?  It becomes annoying to have to adjust the resolution of every time!

    Thank you.

    I FOUND THE SOLUTION (to my problem at least).  It turns out that it's Windows Live Mesh that was causing the problem.  Uninstalled Live Mesh and no longer have the problem.  Guess I don't use mesh until they solve the problem with the solution of problems.

  • Windows will not update the screen resolution and the color depth

    Out of the blue today, my Windows XP installation had its color depth and screen resolution back to the lowest setting and whenever I try to update it refuses to put up-to-date.

    I even try to restart my computer and a bubble appears downstairs offering reset the color depth and resolution to my automatically.  When I click, it appears as if he's trying to return to normal, but again once nothing happens - the colors and the screen resolution is still at the lowest setting.

    Can any ideas on how I fix?

    Hello

    Here are some things to try to fix it.

    Change the screen resolution.

    "How the resolution screen on Windows XP"

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/Videocards/HT/screenres.htm

    You can also right-click on an empty desktop > properties > settings > it the slider bar allows you to increase the resolution > Apply > OK > agree in the next window, etc.

    If that fixed it, have damaged you graphic drivers.

    Access the site on your computer or the manufacturer of the graphics card > look for a driver download Section > search for your model number and operating system > get graphics / video / Chipset Drivers (depending on how it is formulated) > download and install.

    Change the screen resolution.

  • Cannot change the screen resolution. Help, please

    I recently reinstalled Windows XP (service Pack2) on my computer and restored the office to the factory settings. Now, the screen resolution is stuck at 640 x 480 and 16-bit color quality as this was not a problem before. The screen that appears under 'type of screen' in the advanced settings menu says "default monitor" and the properties button is not clickable. I tried to connect another monitor to the PC, but it doesn't help. Can someone help please I really need to change the resolution of the screen to a higher quality? Also, the PC has an internet connection if that makes a difference. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    ... What other drivers in addition to the graphics card and network card should I try to install?

    In fact, those who are newer than your current drivers.

    I understand your reasoning for installing the monitor driver, however, I'd personally chipset (motherboard), video, audio and network (LAN) first. After updating the video driver, there is a chance that it recognises so the screen correctly.

    I don't know if you have reinstalled Windows XP from floppy disks to install Windows or Dell installation/recovery disks or partition restore hidden, but nevertheless, the drivers that were installed during installation is as new as the installation media. Given that the media are at least 5 years and more (maybe 8 years and more), there is an excellent chance that all the material and device drivers have been updated.
