  As you can see, for some programs look systray icons very low resolution and just plain bad.
  I have reviewed the icon for the executable file of these programs and has determined that all of the resolutions of the icon is available (256 x 256, 48 x 48, 32 x 32, 24 x 24, 16 x 16).
  I tried to correct the problem by placing a custom in the program directory file app.ico.
  Nothing seems to work.
  The resolution of my monitor is correctly defined in the display settings.
  I talked to other users of W7 using the same programs and they report that the icons look very well for them.
  
  I'm running a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate on a Lenovo T60 with a 'landscape' theme Windows applied (IE no programs custom theme or something like that).
  As a result of this issue, maybe someone could tell me what use the resolution of the Windows icon in the system tray?
  Thank you

  in fact you don't have to restore your system, because maybe you have already lived a few weeks with the problem.

  It worked smoothly for me.

  -load a default theme

  -check the advanced appearance settings

  -compare the number of dimensions of each element with the decimal version of the 'size' on

  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Appearance\New Schemes\Current SaveAll\Sizes\0 settings

  -There should be two numbers that do not match (for me were 21 on dialog appearance and 23 in the registry, twice).

  -Double-click on the registry value and write what you have on the dialog edit the data type decimal.

  -Repeat for the other incompatibilities

  -close the registry

  -Start the Task Manager

  -complete the process explorer.exe (Don't panic)

  -menu file, new task run explorer.exe

  -Close Task Manager

  -smile

• Entire user interface stuck in mode low resolution on Windows 10

  All menus, windows, text and buttons are visibly blurred as they attempt to return to the native resolution less. Not know why, or how to address. All the zoom and magnification options are greyed out.

  Same problem was present on Photoshop CC 2015, but managed to move from "Beginner" in "Advanced" mode and it is resolved. Switching modes in Dreamweaver keeps low resolution question regardless of the choice of mode.

  Someone at - it met similar problems?

  Dreamweaver isn't easy high resolution, although I understand that developers are working on it for a future release.

  The best you can do is drop that settings of your screen resolution back to something more comfortable for your eyes.  Make sure you have the latest graphics drivers from the manufacturer's website.  Drivers Windows are not later.  Also change your clear Type parameters in order to reduce the "blur".

  Everyone is having these problems with laptops out there?

  Hi Sammole,

  Sinus a few days that I have too many Satellite P500. I must say that it s a very big book, I love it. The screen is really good and big and in my opinion the best option for games, videos and other multimedia stuff. In addition it s equipped of the fast processor and a graphics card, ideal for playing games.

  All my games work well so I put t know what has happened to you. Make sure that the eco mode isn't active, this will slow down the performance.
  Also make sure that the most recent display Toshiba driver is installed and the latest version of Microsoft DirectX.

  Also check homepage of Splinter Cell. There may be an update (patch) available who can help you. :)

• Satellite P100-188: low resolution fonts and menus, game

  Hello

  I have a P100-188 and fonts on the office and Internet icons display very well, however the fonts displayed in message boxes look terrible, looks like they are displayed in low resolution, you can see practically every pixel that make up the letters.

  This is really visible with some games I've played, as UFO: Afterlight and supreme commander. The games look good, but the menus for the said games are terrible.

  Nobody else this remark on their machines and is it current with windows and LCD screens?
  This is my first laptop and my desktop computer is old and it uses a CRT monitor that do not show the same symptoms.

  Hello

  Have you changed your display resolution or even use native resolution 1440 x 900?

  AFAIK P100 has excellent 17.0 "TruBrite discovers Wide 16:10 color TFT display and the illustration is really fantastic. Because of that, I'm a little confused about your ad. To make it better to try to change the font size and enlarge the fonts.

• Games running in lower resolution on the desktop resolution does not fill the screen

  I have a laptop HP ENVY 17 TS with NVIDIA GT 740 M and Intel 4600HD graphics drivers and running Windows 7. Whenever I want to change the resolution in games at a lower resolution on the desktop resolution, the game shrinks to its view, leaving the couple of inches black bars on the edges. For example, if my the desktop resolution is 1920 x 1080 and I want to start a game in 1600 x 900, the game does not fill the screen, instead, it leaves an amount of empty space on the edges of the screen.
  
  In order to solve this problem, I tried the following steps:
  
  I first tried to locate the view tab in the NVIDIA Control Panel in order to define the scale/stretch in "Full screen", but my version of NVIDIA CP isn't the view tab (my NVIDIA drivers are the latest version).
  
  Then I discovered that I should do this in the Intel HD Graphics Control Panel. My Intel HD Graphics CP has an option named "Calibration" under display > display settings and it doesn't show the option to retain display scaling that is checked by default and does not change. Also, after searching the Internet I saw that some people suggested entering the 'advanced settings' and try to make changes. When I try to enter advanced settings, under view, it says 'this screen does not support advanced settings'.
  
  After trying without success, I tried the update driver Intel via their website, hoping that it can fix the problem. I ran the small Intel application on their Web site that identifies my chipset and offers me the latest driver for this chipset. Web site told me that the driver is installed on my computer is 10.18.10.3304, and there is an update for what is 15.33.18.64.3496 (or 10.18.10.3496). So I downloaded the file, but when I tried to run, it gave me this error message: "the drivre being installed is not validated for this computer. You can get the correct driver from the manufacturer of the computer. Setup will now exit. "that makes no sense.
  
  After trying the above steps, I'm not able to solve the problem, and I need help from someone who really knows how to solve this problem.
  
  Thank you.

  Solution (I hope)

  1. choose the properties of the graphic (logo Intel) option when you right click on the desktop

  2. go in view

  3. go through the resolutions on the 'Resolution' and change to this resolution (do not click Apply)

  4. for everyone to go to 'Scaling' at the bottom of the screen and change it to scale full screen (do not click Apply)

  5. Repeat until you get back to the higher resolution (that won't let you change the scale).

  6. quickly choose a few resolutions from the drop-down menu to make sure that they have changed their scale.

  I had a problem with some resoultions changing the way they were, but which should solve most of the problems.

• Problems with low resolution games

  Hello, my name is GiZmO_themachineking.

  I noticed that in Windows Vista (or maybe it's just my computer) that when I play a game with a lower resolution on my screen (1280 * 800), rather than the pixels 'stretch' to fill the screen, it is scaled down and centered in the Middle, with a black frame around it.

  Of course, I can turn the resolution but my computer isn't very good and what makes the slow race game.

  Anyone know how I can fix this error and force the pixels in a game to 'stretch' to fill the screen?

  I think that on the only workaround for the problems of games would be to change the DPI for the fonts setting in your Control Panel/customization "fonts Size (DPI) adjustment." Mark L. Ferguson MS - MVP

Where everything is enlarged. I change all the settings, this happened to me I connect in my user on my laptop (vista home prem 64 bit). I tried to change the resolution, which does not help, it's a whole little bit better, but it still doesn't look good. I don't know what went wrong or how to fix 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.

• UP2715k flicker at lower resolutions

  Hi all

  I recently bought a Dell UP2715K monitor. I have it plugged into a card ATI over-pants v5100 double connections DP1.2. The monitor works well at 5 k resolutions, and I had minor problems in this mode of resolution.

  However when I try to use the monitor to the other resolutions, I tend to do screen flickering across from time to time. Currently, the monitor is in 2560x1440@60Hz resolution for several hours. The glitter is quite randomly in nature. Even in the hours between a twinkle, sometimes get flickers of 5-6 minutes.

  I tried completely to turn the monitor off and remove all power to the monitor for several minutes, then allowing the monitor to operate in a normal state for at least an hour to reduce "stray voltage". He advised in a position of 'Common problems' Dell.

  Anyone have any ideas on how to minimize this? The screen is still relatively new, it is potentially a normal running-in behavior that will go away with time? Or am I'm having problems, leaving the two DP1.2 ports plugged while working temporarily at lower resolutions?

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

  I downgraded pilots since the latest ATI 15.102 drivers to version 14.502 and my flickering issue disappeared. I had to install a driver known for Windows 8.1 even if I'm running Windows 10 but the screen it seems to work reliably now in this lower resolution mode. This announcement on the case where someone faces in the future this issue.
