• Impossible to change the laptop screen resolution

  original title: laptop computer screen resolution problem

  Reference Dell Inspiration 8200 computer laptop running Windows XP.  The screen resolution is set to 1600 x 1200.  When I change to 1024 x 768 or 800 x 600, the Office is shrinking and is centered on the black space screen all around rather than to just all look more and filling the screen as it happens on my desktop computer.

  How can I fix it?

  The laptop has one (and only one) goal and it's playing a game on it.  The game comes tiny in the center of the screen and I want that it fills the screen as in the same way as on my desktop.  The game's maximum resolution is 800 x 600.

  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.

• 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.

  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.

• Screen resolution and wallpaper

  Hello community,

  The resolution recommended for my 24 "monitor is 1920 x 1200.  However, when I go to Web sites to download the wallpaper, sites automatically than 1280 x 800 is the resolution of my screen and the corresponding wallpaper.  I use Windows 7 slideshow to display wallpapers on my desktop. My question is, why Web sites indicate the resolution of 1280 x 800, which is considered to be on the big screen, 1920 x 1200 is the appropriate resolution.  Especially, there is no difference in the display of the wallpaper on my desktop through these two resolutions.  Clearly provide is greatly appreciated.

  Thank you advance.

  Hello

  Most sites that offer custom Windows wallpapers produce wall-paper in the most commonly used screen resolutions.

  If your screen resolution is not the one most commonly used, it will show the wallpapers with the resolutions that are closer to the resolution you are using.

  I had problems with vista periodically change the resolution of the screen but still have just changed the resolution to what I want.  I see that there are complaints about this problem with Dell and HP computers.  I have a gateway so the problem is not with the manufacturer of the computer.

  Now, the resolution has been changed and I can't move the icons for I wish it.  If I increase the resolution, all the icons are arranged on the left side of the screen and will not go.  What happened to cause this and how can I fix this problem?

• Computer laptop screen flickering and horizontal lines in Inspiron 15r SE 7520

  I have a laptop Dell inspiron 15r is who is 1.1years old (model - 7520). It worked well up to that of a few days. Last week, he began giving a horizontal line of white point at the top of the screen (like that... in white) for the entire width of the screen. Since yesterday, or a similar line began to appear at the bottom too. Two of these online come and go every 2-3 sec. And the screen will jump a little (like 5 pixels or larger) and it will also sometimes shake which makes it difficult to read letters.

  The problem exists everywhere, even in the start screen. In short, when I press power button / stop and screen start showing something problem also begins.

  Today, I plugged an external lcd display via a vga cable and it works fine. No line and no flickering. So I guess that the GPU is ok? What could be the problem? Would be - this contact that loose or something cable laptop computer screen?

  Another question: I got the security, including the protection against accidental damage and stuff for a year. But since I was outside this period, now, what do I do?

  And since I am outside the warranty period anyway is it OK if I open my laptop and try something?

  Help, please!

  If you have found the solution please share with me.

• Pavilion dv7-3065dx: computer laptop screen flickering and unreadable with broadband dark at the center of the screen

  Just make a full recovery on the system that went well for about a week. system running this morning and have a flickering screen, which also has a bunch of 6-inch black in the middle of the screen. Changed hard drives and found the same result. I know the good system startup screen, but it is unreadable.

  Well from my knowledge, it seems that the screen has a problem of collage, perhaps portable continually being picked up by the screen, so fear new required

• computer laptop screen flickering and showing is not happy about half right side of the screen

  In the past the entire screen will not display the content.  flickers sometimes wildly, or shows just a whitish background.

  problem has gotten worse lately.

  If I touch the screen, the flashing stops sometimes, or the color goes from white to blue.  other strange things:

  sometimes if I keep on pressing against it, it shows a bunch of blue right in the Center, but I have the visible screen on both sides of it.  any window, I opened can be seen partially on 1 half and the rest in the other half.

  Unfortunately the band in the middle in this case takes realestate I can't see my internet connections etc. at the bottom right.

  I have a Presario CQ6d, model CA60-615DX.

  What should do?

  =================================
  Have you had success playing other video DVDs?

  Maybe you need a DVD decoder?

  (FWIW... it is always preferable, if you create a system restore
  point before installing any software or updates)

  Info about DVD decoders:
