  • Screen size WIndows 7

    I have a new HP laptop less than an hour old.  All the games I bought Iwin opens only at a screen size of a quarter of the screen.  It's annoying and frustrating.  I find no solution in my many google searches.  What to do to make games to play on the full screen?

    Hello hoff88,

    I could not well iWin games listed on the Windows 7 Compatibility Center to see if they are compatible. You may need to check with the manufacturer of iWin to see if they are compatible Windows 7.

    You can also try using compatibility mode.

    If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

    Use the following steps:

    (1) right click on the program

    2) click Properties

    3) click on the Compatibility tab

    (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

    Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    If compatibility is not successful, then try and run the program compatibility problems:

    1. open the troubleshooting program compatibility Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button.

    Then click on Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting. Under programs, click on run programs for previous versions of Windows.

    2. follow the instructions in the troubleshooting.

    If you are unable to install a program, insert the installation disc for the program and, using the Troubleshoot utility, navigate to the program setup file, usually called Setup.exe, Install.exe, or something similar. This utility is not designed to work on programs that have an .msi file name extension.

    If you are running Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate version, install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/default.aspx) and run your software in Windows XP.

    If you run Windows 7 Home Premium, try VirtualBox (www.virtualbox.org) or other VMware Player (www.vmware.com) and install a separate copy of Windows XP (family or professional edition) for this purpose. You can also do a search on the internet and find free 3 third-party virtualization programs that could work as well.

    I hope this helps.

  • Connection HDMI 2710 change screen size

    When I have my monitor 2710 connected via DVI for my video (ATI Radeon HD 4600) adapter cable the OS window occupies the entire screen.  If I connect the monitor via a HDMI cable on the same card that I have about 1 inch of black space on all sides and the top and bottom.

    When I look at the properties for the screen resolution, the two bodies say 1920 X 1080.

    I'm under Win7Ultimate.

    Any ideas why the HDMI connection is reflected in the black space on the edges?

    Thank you

    Brian

    The ATI graphics card think it is connected to a HDMI is a standard TV THIS (electronics). TV is known for overscanniing, so the graphics card by default underscans to 8% for HDMI. This can be changed to 0%.

    In the Catalyst Control Panel, there should be an option in the scroll bar and television digital (HDMI) where scaling Option. See the image below.

    See you soon,.

  • I don't know how to change the size and quality of the text on the screen on Windows 7

    I just installed a new Windows 7 but I don't know how to change the size and quality of the text on the screen.  I tried all the things normal, resolution, size of icons, dpi etc but nothing gives me what I want.  The text in clear 'wonderful' thing is just terrible.  When I go through the 4 steps I see no text boxes which make the text nothing better.  All options are terrible, so the result on screen is too terrible.  When I do any huge I do not get a full screen of things - view the Start button disappears or I did not closing small cross at the top - of the suggestions to inprove the situation?  I must mention that my screen/monitor is 2006 - I need to buy a new one?  How much is this Windows 7 is going to cost me, or maybe I should go back to XP!

    I sincerely thank all you smart "technicians" for all the answers you always gave myself and all others who ask questions.  I'm not too smart with all this new technology as I fell into it very late.  I am now in my 60s and only started using a pc when I was over 50 years so...  In any case, I asked a question about the size of screen resolution and text and received much good advice from all that you guys.  I had recently changed in XP to Windows 7.  However, the bit of advice that I was given in 'Cyberking' here at the Portugal had set the resolution of the screen, the advanced settings, 75 to 60 Hertz Monitor tab.  Very basic, and the first question asked the technician (Lady) was "what size is your screen?  Naturally as a smaller screen that any 'techno' would be considered dead aid, solving the problem was simple and straightforward without me having to stretch my knowledge and my skills by downloading all programes weird (to me) or do the funny stuff in the bios or something else.  I send this comment to you for you to realize that the simple solution is not always bad and maybe we should go for the easiest first and then work up to the more difficult ones.

    Just for you all to see - now my screen resolution is perfect, the text on the screen is clear and legible without difficulty, even though the size of text and icon is small.  Clarity is all!

    Thank you all once again!   Best regards, Blondie blue.

    Nitzy

    Nitzy,

    You can configure your façade elements to resize with the façade. And you can set up your Panel before be enlarged, which means ' an application full screen. Together, these two settings may solve your problem.

    But be aware that sizing is no "analog" process, so propably you meet the gaps and overlaps between your controls.

    hope this helps,

    Norbert

    [EDIT] The two settings are in the settings of VI (Ctrl + I).
