Cannot bar resolution move to set the screen resolution

I just installed vista and everything was huge! I went screen resolution under Customize and there is no other options on the scroll bar expect I am the one on which is 640 X 480 at an average of 16-bit color, I tried to update the drivers for the card and the screen but its still the same, I also reinstalled vista but its still the same HELP!

Go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your laptop computer-graphics/computer card > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

If there is no graphics Vista drivers available for your model, nothing can be done about it.

Change the screen resolution

Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

See you soon.

    I tried this in Windows XP and Vista with drivers from the toshiba Web site.

    Any ideas on how to force this resolution?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Are you sure that the graphics card supports this high resolution!
    If all goes well it s not a material limitation

    But especially if the display resolution is not available the graphics card driver does not support this resolution of the screen.
    In this case only the new driver installation and usage help

    What graphics card is installed on your laptop? Graphic chip Intel?
    If you use an Intel graphics card, then I recommend to visit the Intel page and search for a compatible driver on this page. Some users here in the forum said that the Intel drivers could help choose the preferred resolution.

  • Cannot set the screen stretched after playing game. HP Pavilion dv6000 Notebook.

    Hello

    Once a game my screen stayed tight, horizontally lying. Normally my screen is returned to normal after closing the game Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, but this time it somehow stuck or something. I checked the resolution: it's 1024 x 768 like it always was, so this isn't the problem. When I "Print screen", the image is quite normal on the other computers, so I think it may be the driver? Do I have to download Driver NVIDIA? I tried, but he says that the driver is not compatible with my hardware. I think I can find one that is compatible, but first I would like to know if this will fix my problem.

    Thank you

    I had a contact with HP customer service, and I tried many things. Restart the pc, download the drivers, nothing seems to work. The guy said I had to reinstall windows, and the screen was fine still... Here, there was a simpeler for this solution, but I'm glad that my screen is normal now.

  • How to set the screen resolution?

    Original title: on screen display with the unused space on the sides

    It is probably so basic, but my display is not full screen, even if I put it in full screen. There is an inch of space black unused screen on each side of the screen. What should I do?  Thanks in advance

    Hello

    You're probably not using the correct resolution, IE: you use a display standard aspect ratio when you have a widescreen monitor. This can be corrected in the settings/personalize/display of the Control Panel, adjust the slider to resolution here.

  • How to set the screen resolution to fit monitor

    original title: monitor

    I have a large screen, but it seems as if it was a waste of money because I don't get to use the middle of the screen. Can someone tell me please how to get full use out of my monitor? do I need some sort of version beta or something?

    Your description is not very clear, are the main steps to configure your display:

    -Make sure you have the latest drivers for your graphics card & monitor installed Windows 7 .

    -Search in the manual of your monitor and find out what the native resolution & refresh rate are for example (1920 x 1080 @ 60 Hz), then go to:

    Start-> Control Panel-> display

    and together that view you these settings.

    -If you have black borders around your screen, you should increase the size of your screen through the software installed normally with your graphics card. For a basic card ATI look for a feature called overscan/underscan. Look for the option to increase the size of the desktop in the nVidia Control Panel for nVidia cards. For othe graphics cards check support manual/website for advice.

  • How do you get the menu bar to stop going off the screen all the time?

    2007 IMac 2.4 ghz 4gig ram 1tbt hard drive

    I've updated 'ELCAPITAN' and that I was using the preserved menu bar disappear off the screen that became boring and I couldn't find any way to stop the menu bar to go off the screen, so I went back to snow leopard but have updated for osX 10.9.5

    with no bar menu to disappear.

    The menu bar can be set to hide and show in El Capitan.

    In any OS X that implements the full mode screen, the menu bar is hidden in fullscreen.

    In both cases, move the mouse to the top of the screen will be un-hide the menu bar.

    You can disable the general masking in general system preferences in El Capitan.

    For full screen, you can prevent the concealment using do not full-screen.

  • When I move my mouse, the screen zooms in or the pointer shapes

    I have a laptop, I use a mouse pad, not a real mouse.  Often, when I'm in a document or on the internet, if I move my finger on the mouse pad, my screen zooms or scrolls up/down instead of moving the pointer on the screen.  Also, when I move my finger on the pad, the pointer in forms (sometimes a little swirly icon) and it won't let me move my mouse.

    I didn't change the settings, my mouse has started to do this as soon as I bought it.

    Thanks for your help!

    Hello Apiazza.

    Almost all laptops nowadays use the sides of the touchpad for fast scrolling or zooming.  In general, there is an icon in the State system (normally at the bottom right of the screen) bar, which will control.  You can usually change the amount of space is the space reserved for scrolling to the top and turn it off completely.  This functionality is provided by the manufacturer of the laptop, so there is no place you can go to Windows to do this, you may need to consult the documentation for your computer if you do not find the program sitting on the system tray. I crawled off NNTP - for now. Announcement of Yeovil, United Kingdom. On the internet at www.windowsresource.net. Please post back to let us know what works and what does not. :-)

  • How do I set the screen window size in a guest LinuxMint17 (WS7)?

    I am always on WorkStation 7 (last revision) because I discovered that after installing the update I bought I would be able to use 7 and I need that for some of my virtual machines...

    Anyway, now I need to test some features of Web server and need a KDE LinuxMint17 machine for this.

    Installation went well and I also installed the virtual machine; Tools of dishes without problem.

    As part of the installation, I put the size of the screen for the guest to 1024 x 768 in the properties of the VM.

    Then I could install the basic software that I need the terminal of the virtual machine.

    But it turns out that this screen is too small for the webbrowser, I need to run inside the guest, so I stopped and then replaced by the properties of the vm to display 1280 x 1024.

    The strange thing is that the guest does not adjust when I start again, it always appears in the size 1024 x 768.

    So I'm looking for help set the size of the screen correctly in the comments of LinuxMint17...

    Is it possible to make the largest screen in Linux?

    I looked at the System_Settings/Display_And_Monitor inside the guest, but I do not get a way to resize it.

    Or maybe there is way to allow resizing screen in VMWare Workstation settings for the prompt instead?

    Note that I have running in a window rather than the full screen because I use it as a test machine for stuff that happens in Windows...

    I tried Googling for Linux screen size settings but came empty-handed, suggestions addressed the other issues...

    I do not use Linux Mint but on other Linux Distros, I use the xrandr from a Terminal command to set the resolution of the screen when it is not available from the GUI.

    Execution of xrandr by itself will be out the available resolutions then, for example, use: xrandr-s 1024 x 768

  • How can I replace my taskbar and commissioning menu.the bar tasks are not on the screen

    the taskbar does not appear on the screen

    The taskbar is resizable, like a window, and it can be set to zero
    lines of ups. Maybe that's your problem, and fixing must be the
    first thing you should try. You may have accidentally resized to
    zero lines of ups. Place the cursor on the bottom of the screen and pass
    it upward and down slightly until it turns into a two-headed arrow.
    Click on, and then drag it to the desired size.

    If this does not work, it may be zero lines high on another facet of the
    the screen, try the above on all four sides.

    Finally, if none of those working, go to

    It started this morning very well, then unexpectedly, he starts slowly his way around the screen that I have never had this before, I use a trackball mouse, I already tried rebooting but also tried another mouse and even tried just unpluging the mouse and pluging it back

    Have you tried to use canned Air to clean the mouse?

    Using the uninstall/reinstall driver?

    Is the mouse still under warranty?  Contact manufacturer for a replacement

    There are nearby facilities that could conflict with the mouse?  Router, cell phone, phone?

  • Playing blu - ray movies... the screen turns black. Help!

    My laptop HP dv7 - 4197cl a problem playing blu - ray movies... screen goes black.  When some of the blu ray movies (Green Zone... tried to play 2 drives different blu - ray and "A prophet"), the disc begins to charge to the top and then the screen goes all black.  The disks are new and have no scratches.  Some other blu ray discs will play fine.  I need help.

    I already downloaded the lates bios for my computer and there is no other updates for the HP Media Smart program.  Has anyone else had similar problems?  What can I do else?

    I just downloaded the latest version of HP Media Smart DVD player on HP website and uploaded on my computer.  Once deleted my old program and downloaded the new version, he played very well.  It really sucks that HP did not offer this update on my older version that said that he had no new updates.  Thank you... I had to do this on my own.

  • The mouse icon moves firmly around the screen

    Original title: floating freely icon mouse?

    When you move the icon on the screen, it does not move firmly/precisely...feels almost as another hand is control.

    Hi Claire,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    In order to help you better, please provide us with the following information:

    1. Using a wired or wireless mouse or a touchpad?
    2. Using a laptop or desktop?
    3. Check the behavior by plugging another mouse.

    According the description, I understand that the mouse icon is not mobile firmly across the screen. I suggest methods and check them off below if it helps:

    1. check your mouse for dirt or debris if you use a wired mouse. To check debris, flip the mouse and twist the casing around the ball. It should run free, allowing you to remove it. Check the mouse cover and the area around the compartment of mice for the forests of dust that can keep the ball from rolling freely.

    2. determine if a recent update is causing your mouse drifting on a laptop. Click on the "Start" menu and open the "Control Panel". Click on "System and Maintenance" and then click "Backup and Restore Center." Select a restore point and to reinstall updates one by one to determine what update causes your cursor problem.

    3. disconnect your mouse if you use a cable one and make sure that your USB port is free of debris. Plug the mouse back and if the problem is resolved.

    4 update your device driver by right-clicking on "My computer", then clicking on "Properties" and then clicking on the tab "Hardware" "Device Manager." Find your mouse driver, right click and select "update driver software".

    I suggest you to refer the below link and try to change the mouse settings and check:

    I was looking at my pictures of holiday and hit the word "slideshow".  A photo could evolve slowly towards me for a few seconds, and then again one right after the other... it looked really cool.  Now - for some reason any... He is not doing that.  Everything that happens is photo suddenly appear on the screen - one right after the other.  No discoloration or movement.  How to bring back the soft cool slideshow?  Thank you - Heath

    -What program do you use to view photos on the computer?
    -Were there any changes made to the computer before the show?

    a. double click on a photo and click the slide show button.
    b. right-click on the photo and select slideshow speed or slide show average speed.
    c. When finished, close the Windows Photo Viewer and once more open it and check if the problem persists.
