change the display settings
my pc resolution is 1280/800 but my display settings show 1024/768 maximum.what should I do?
Hello
Your graphics card does not support this resolution, or drivers support do not. Update (or maybe back) your drivers to the latest version from the manufacturer. If that doesn't get you the resolution you're looking for, then the problem is located at the hardware level - you will need to replace the graphics card.

I am Admin on my PC, but cannot change the display settings.
I have vista home premium and I can't change my wallpaper. I am logged on as administrator and can change most of the other settings, but a box tells be that the administrator has blocked the launching of the display settings control panel. I don't think that I have never done this, not intentionally at least. I tried to use the parameters of Environmental Variables, but it's like a foreign language to me - I don't know what to do with it. I don't have time for this! I have a job to do. Does anyone know an easy fix for this?

Download the file: continue to change the display settings
Hi all
These days, he continues to be for no reason.
I put the display settings to my download folder. The list, by group type, sort by last modified.
However, without one apparent for this folder, other than asking to display its content, the undisciplined directory view my files in a detailed list with the default sort.My path to the download folder have been changed from the original.
As my Windows is not in English, the name of path is also different from the display name (don't think that will have an impact as the path name is different from the name in all versions of windows-English).The setting for the folder is 'General Elements' (in properties/customize).
Does anyone have the same problem before? In my view, is not only in the download folder.
Any idea to fix it? I tried using desktop.ini, because I used to do it a lot before, but nothing has changed in this file, when I tried to change the display using the browser configuration.
As I don't remember the setting of desktop.ini, I looked in the documentation.
Here: http://hwiegman.home.xs4all.nl/desktopini.html
And here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/cc144102%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
I changed the setting to 3 Vid == Mod.
As the problem appeared at random times, I do not know if my problem is solved :/I have of course a question of law in the desktop.ini file.
If anyone has any idea... =)I had a similar problem.
Certain way when you change the name of the folder. He lost the file that held the parameters.
I found that the easiest way is to rename the damaged library, I recommend
"Temp of library". Then create a new library with the name of the library, in your case downloads.
or whatever you want to call it.
Then in the pane left right click the new library.
And then in the left pane right-click the library damaged, then copy the 'Library locations' by using the 'include a folder"in your new downloads folder.
Close windows Explorer. Reopen and verify that your settings are as you wish.
You can delete the corrupted library.

Satellite Pro L300: How to change the display settings
Hi I have a toshiba satellite pro l300 run a pentium dual core and intel 965 display chip any games I play on my laptop, they open in a small box and not full screen I've had a quick glance at the settings to try to resolve this with no luck.
Can someone tell me if there is a way to change the settings to get the games to play in full screen, my current display settings are 1280 x 800 pixels and running at 32-bit color.
Any help would be appreciated.
You should set this option to full screen in the games you play. Checked for these options, because you are given something like graphics, solution details and in most cases should be windowed.
One thing you might try is to uninstall your current display drivers, and then reinstall new ones. Make sure that you use tools like ccleaner cleaning record or similar.
Check if you have installed all the latest updates of windows and directx version, if you are using Windows XP. -

Does anyone can help with the display settings on Satellite 4070?
My brother gave me his old laptop, a Satellite 4070, I wrongly thought was of Wi - Fi enabled and it is connected to my library with poor results.
The display settings are gone and continue to go haywire and display a message saying:
There is a problem with your display settings, the adapter type is incorrect, or the current configuration does not work with your hardware.I tried to change the display settings but they go back - anyone got any ideas on that?
I know there is a product recovery CD, but naturally enough I don't have that either.
Thank youHello
I m not exactly on this fault, but it seems there must be something wrong with the graphics driver and display settings.
That's why I recommend you first remove the old driver and after restarting again try to install the graphics driver from the Toshiba driver page.I think you are using the Win98. Am I wrong?
Then visit Toshiba, download the Trident display driver and install it!Good luck and have a nice day ;)

How to change the BIOS settings to read the Norton CD?
In accordance with the instructions of Norton, I need to temporarily change the BIOS setting so that my computer will read the CD that has a Norton Bootable Recovery tool to start the computer. Norton's other attempts to remove the W32. SillyFDC.BDP worm failed, so they recommend using their recovery tool. How can I change the BIOS? Thank you.

You may or may not need to change the BIOS settings. Assuming that you have a bootable CD with this tool, put it in your CD drive and restart the computer. One of the 3 things will happen:
1. the computer starts from the CD and you can follow all instructions you have Symantec.
2 watching very carefully that the computer starts. You may see a message that says something like "press any key to boot from the CD-ROM. If you see this message, press a key (for example, the space bar) and the computer boots from the CD.
3. watch very carefully that the computer starts. You will see a message that says something like, "to change settings, press F1." The key that you press on will be different depending on your particular computer. It might be F1 or F10 or del key. Whatever it is, press this button and you will enter the BIOS configuration utility. From there, you can change the boot order to CD first. Directions to navigate the BIOS Setup will be displayed on the screen, but they will involve using the button tab, enter, and arrow keys, because your mouse does not work in this utility.
