I lost a screen resolution setting in the customization settings.

I am running Vista Home Premium.  I have a westinghouse flat screen.  Its native resolution is 1680 X 1050.  The highest resolution setting in the settings of display resolution is 1600 X 1200.  I installed spy sweeper from webroot and rebooted and lost native resolution setting.  I tried to restore to an earlier date, but it does not work.  I still have a problem.

Who did it!  Thank you so much.

    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.

    For example, 640 × 480 is a lower screen resolution, and 1600 × 1200 is higher. CRT monitors generally display a resolution of 800 × 600 or 1024 × 768. LCD monitors can better support the higher resolutions. If you can increase your screen resolution depends on the size and capability of your monitor and the type of video card you have.

  • Different screen resolutions - what is the best method?

    Hello

    I know that this question was asked a thousand times before, but what is the best way and the most reliable to deal with different screen resolutions?

    I read a lot of posts about it and tested on everything: unique, methods, combinations, let labview scale my objects, their scale by myself, etc. Another alternative that I found was to design the front panel to the lower screen resolution, let labview scale objects (graphics, controls tab and decorations) as window increases or decreases and lock "groups of indicators, controls and text" to prevent them from scaling and overlap. However, if I lock these "groups" that they don't move in the right place in the resizing of the window. Then, I put these 'groups' within groups and tried to compensate for the position via the property node, but it was not possible because the 'groups' within the cluster have been locked!

    After all these tests, I realized that the best way to manage different screen resolutions must have a main VI that detects the current screen resolution and load the good VI for this resolution. The problem is that I have a VI for each screen resolution (created one by one) and if I want to move the code I have to do the same task for all the screws

    Since I already have all the screws (for different screen resolutions), I could get the sizes and positions of all the objects through property nodes and create a kind of 'cluster' which, after the detection of the current screen resolution, would be to adjust all the objects. But I have several decorations in the front panel and I can not get information via the node property of them.

    THW way you can prevent the control to move when you're scaling, is to group the controls with 'something' which is placed outside the façade. In the example I give you now, you can see that I have grouped the stop button and the 'red faces' with a 'point' on the left side of the front panel.

  • Why a spare screen resolution would affect the speed of the system?

    I changed my screen resolution from 1024 x 768 to 800 x 600 to test a Web site that I built and that includes another CSS file for 800 x 600 screens. Immediately, I noticed that most of the common functions I do in Explorer - as the opening and closing of windows, goes into the secondary drive, by clicking on the menu Starrt to display programs - were almost twice as fast. The reason for this?

    Hi okieseeker,

    If the graphics card supports higher resolution, then it is one that is recommended to optimize the computer's performance.

    If you decrease the resolution, it would cause the variation in the performance of the computer.

    Hope the helps of information.

    Please post back and we do know.

  • Screen resolution problem - is the bare min and there are no other options

    I've upgraded to Vista, a month or two ago and my screen resolution is the bare min and there are no other options better resolution. I tried to update the graphics card but it tells me that it is up-to-date.

    Update your video driver... try the following...

    If you have a portable computer... go to the support site for your computer manufacturer
    and the search for Compatible Vista video drivers updated.

    If you have a desktop computer... go to the website of your video adapter support
    manufacturer and find Compatible Vista video drivers updated.

    The following article can help you find the brand/model/driver version of
    your video card:

When I go to display properties and click on the tab settings of the machine crashes with a blue screen. Have tried to reinstall the driver provided on the CD with the machine but makes no difference. I tried downloading a more updated to Intel driver but it says that it cannot install it. Any suggestions from anyone, please?

    Yes, to you on time. In the device under Graphics Manager, two graphics controllers appear. But it's not a fault.
    Also Toshiba recommend using the graphic drivers of Toshiba. In this case, you should visit Toshiba's pilot Web site, and you need to install the graphics driver from this site.

  • My Dell ST2220L Monitor has no screen resolution that fits the screen.

    I recently moved and before the move, my ST2220L turned to 1680 x 1050 and it fit perfectly on the screen (that's what he says is the recommended resolution and there is nothing more. After I moved, when I started my monitor, instead the 1920 x 1080 was the new recommended and 1680 x 1050 wasn't available more (it is not recommended, and it does not display). 1920 x 1080, or 1680 x 1050 to adapt to the screen and I play often and it's annoying to have to have my games in windowed mode, because they extend off screen and I do not see the HUD. would appreciate help.

    Well, that was a silly solution.

    I went in my monitor settings and found the horizontal option adjust and it toggled up abit and hurry to the screen very well.

    I feel a bit stupid now.

  • Screen resolution changes when the PC is moved

    I'm building a Windows 7 PC to be used in hundreds of stores across the country.  It is Windows 7 with Service Pack 1.  Some applications that use our stores need 1024 x 768 in order to work properly.  I am able to change the resolution and save changes - and no matter how many times I reboot it, the resolution is still there.  However, if I move that PC to another network to test elsewhere in our society, it starts back to the default value of 1280 x 1024.

    I tried several solutions I found within this forum - one mentioned disabling 'Windows Live Mesh', but this isn't a service listed on this system.  Another mentioned program compatibility verification, but that does not apply since it occurs immediately started upward in a new location.

    This is going to be a problem when we start to ship our images, but they do not keep the resolution of 1024 x 768.

    Any ideas?

    It is an another monitor however (different material ID), and which resets the resolution.

  • Screen resolution resizing when the lid is down

    Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron with a Radeon Mobility x 1400 e1505. Whenever I close the lid, the monitor is resized to 1680 x 1050 to 1024 x 768 (or something similar).

    Radeon does not support the video card more and when I run the installation of the catalyst he tells me to go to the manufacturing site (Dell). It is an old laptop and driver carried out since 2006 was last updated.

    I use currently 3rd party drivers (Omega Drivers 4.8) and it's a change to catalyst 7.x drivers. However, the person behind the Omega Drivers updates no more for personal reasons.

  • 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?

    Here are some things to try to fix it.

    If that fixed it, have damaged you graphic drivers.

  • Half of my screen has low resolution and/or the contrast that the other half

    Greetings!

    The left side of the screen on my laptop seems normal with a high resolution and brightness, while the right side of the screen seems darker as it has a higher contrast and is more degraded it has a lower resolution... it looks almost like a demo of tv showing the difference between the high and low definition.

    Does anyone have an idea on how to get the screen of the same search on the screen?  The general change the appearance of the screen and return to an earlier date before that I messed up my computer did not work.
    Thanks in advance!

    See you soon!

    Could be a hardware failure on the laptop.

    One thing to try as a test is to start from a 'live' as Ubuntu OS (for example), just start it DO NOT install it. See - http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/try-ubuntu-before-you-install - for more details. This should hopefully allow you to see if the screen works well or not in another OS, if it looks OK in Ubuntu, then its less likely to be a hardware problem. But if the screen is still divided, then unfortunately, it could be a hardware failure.

    Other things to try eventually (in no particular order):

    1. set to update your graphics card drivers to the latest compatible drivers available for your laptop, where they have been corrupted somehow.

    2 - is still divided into 'safe mode' or is it OK to whom?

    3. If you look in Device Manager, it shows errors regarding the graphics/display/monitor card?

    4. There is this fixit - http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Windows_Display_Quality_Diagnostics/ - in the center of MS fixit who can be worth it. But I doubt it.

    5. If this just started recently, try a restore point for just before it occurred.

    Assuming that you have already tried to change the screen resolution and depth etc color settings and then restore the default values, you need.

In the body of this page, it explains how to fix the problem. BUT, I don't have a problem with the resolution - the screen resolution should be 1024 x 600 or greater and IT IS! This only happens with YOUR browser. I have Chrome and IE, neither of which is a problem. I worked with a representative of the yahoo mail support and he explains that it IS a problem with Firefox and for raise you awareness and fix the problem - I use a Vista operating system on a computer and Windows 7 on my other computer, which has the same problem, so we KNOW for sure, it's a Firefox issue.

    I don't think that the effects of this question all those who use Firefox because I'm able to visit Yahoo Mail without any problems. I would say that to reset the zoom of the page on the page, this issue occurs on. You can do these steps go to view > Zoom > reset or press (Ctrl + 0 (zero).
