Problem with the resolution when you connect to a projector

I regularly used my laptop connected to a projector via a cable VGA for PowerPoint and video clips view in Windows Media Player.   It is automatically detected and adjusted for different sizes of screen of the laptop screen (1366 x 768) and projector (1024 x 768) and projected with success.   Recently I connected the laptop to a second monitor - also 1024 x 768 - instead, and even once, it fits perfectly.

It suddenly stopped setting for the resolution of the projector; When I go to the resolution of the screen, the option to set the resolution of the second screen is grayed out.   No matter if I use extend or duplicate, he insists that the two screens are 1366 x 768.   This has happened with two projectors, all two used to work properly.   I also tried different VGA cables.  The end result is that the image of the projector is hurry to tray.

I can connect fine to the second monitor via the VGA port and sometimes with different resolutions for both screens.   I can also connect to a TV via an HDMI cable.   I can't try a HDMI cable for the spotlight as it is ceiling mounted, and the other is old and is not an HDMI connection.

I checked the drivers and they seem to be up to date.

My laptop is a Dell Latitude running Windows 7.   The graphics card is an Intel HD Graphics 3000.   I tried many suggestions already given on these forums without success.   The real puzzle is that it was working fine and nothing I can draw has changed except that I connected on the other monitor.

Hi Tony,.

Thanks for the reply with the status of the issue. I'm sorry to know that the issue is still unresolved, your efforts to solve this problem are much appreciated.

I suggest to follow the method below and check if that helps:

Method 1: Perform a system restore.

System restore

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/system-restore

System restore WARNING: when you use the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

Method 2: Uninstall all hidden devices:

Step 1: See the article below to activate the devices hidden in Device Manager.

Look at a hidden devices

Step 2: After you enable hidden devices, remove devices from Device Manager.

1. press start.

2. type device manager in the start search box.

3. Select Device Manager in the search result.

4 uninstall everything that are grey also uninstall the drivers to display completely.
5 restart the computer and install the drivers to view the manufacturer's Web site.

Hope this information helps, just reply to the State of the question to get help.

Hi Rizwan

Unfortunately, I do not have a restore point old enough until the problem occurred.   I have not found any that was relevant in hidden devices, but in normal Device Manager mode when I clicked on "monitor" it opened a "Generic PnP" entry even when there was no extra monitor or projector fixed.   When an additional monitor has been attached, there were two of these entries.   I disabled them both, and I found that I can now adjust the resolution of a second monitor to a different setting of the laptop screen.

Thanks for your help.

Tony

  • Problem with the date when you load the XML file into Oracle Database 10g

    Hi all

    I have the interface as shown in the screenshot below. In this document, among other things, I am mapping to an element XML file representing a date to an Oracle table column defined as DATE. The source and target columns are highlighted in the screenshot.

    ! http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/1565/odiscr275.jpg!

    When I run the interface, I get the following error message:

    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException to java.sql.Date.valueOf(Date.java:103)

    I guess that this is the conversion of the date!

    I already tried to replace SRC_TRADES. DEAL_DATE with TO_DATE (SRC_TRADES. DEAL_DATE, ' DD/MM/YYYY') on the implementation tab. This feature was not recognized when I executed the interface, so it did not work! The value of date in the XML file is in the format DD/MM/YYYY .

    I guess that Date SQL Oracle functions do not work in the implementation tab. Could someone let me know:

    1. what the Date Conversion function I could use instead?
    2. where can I find a reference to the methods/functions that I use in the implementation tab (if such a reference exists)?

    See you soon.

    James

    Hello.

    Try changing the area of execution at the staging area. Once you change it, write in the map box just SRC_TRADERS. DEAL_DATE. When you use TO_DATE, the source field typu should be varchar2, no date (as it is in store for your data source)

  • I have problem with Muse files when you work at home with my laptop and when I open the files again in my work with my IMac.

    I have problem with Muse files when you work at home with my laptop and when I open the files again in my work with my IMac.

    I do: when I am uncomfortable with the laptop I save the files on the laptop, then on my external hard drive. Then, when I'm at work, I opened the drive, but the Muse says every time, that so many links in the 'active' is missing. And it takes a lot of time to get all the missing link. Like today I had to open a file of Muse from the external hard drive, and there are about 100 links that are missing.

    How can I solve this problem

    the best thing if you are a user of creative cloud is to store the files in a folder in your account of cloud instead of transferring the files from one computer to another.

    If you are not a Subscriber cc then Dropbox or iCloud will work as well.

  • H satellite L505-13 - problem with the resolution of games

    Hello, I have a problem with the resolution of games, I just that:
    800 x 600 and 1024 x 768
    Yet, I have the latest version of the ati driver and directx 11...

    Windows Dectet my monitor properly (plug-and-play), and my screen resolution works well for: 1366 x 768 and 800 x 600.
    on the other hand, when I start a game I have only the choice between these two resolution: 800 x 600 and 1024 x 768...

    All the games don t fit the full screen and there is always a black area on the right and left.

    Some games (crash)... and I thought it made a link with said that I have only 2 resolution.

    I have a toshiba L505 - h - 13 (PSLS9E)

    OS: win 7 32 bit

    I hope someone can help me find a solution
    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I put t know what games you want to play, but generally speaking, it of also depending on the game you can use screen resolutions. For example if your game supports only 2 screen resolutions, you can only use these resolutions.

    So all you can do is update the driver DirectX and display. Then, look for an update (patch) for the game.

    Good luck! :)

    Dan or one of the others may be able to help if you post exactly what indicates the error.

    As you say you are not a noob so maybe you need to change something in the NVIDIA Control Panel. Maybe go to the advanced option when you're at NVIDIA.

    Personally when I clean installs I delete, and format the entire disk before installing W7. Doing it this way usually prevents this kind of error occurs. When you use the W7 install disk to format, it may not remove all of the old files registry Vista and can cause problems.

    If you start from scratch once again, this may solve your problem, but there is no guarantee.

    It took 4 tries on my HDX from Vista to W7 to do things.

    I just took a glance at my NVIDIA advanced and under Show options there is an option to "manage custom resolutions. Here I could input what I wanted. What's your has that?

    Just bought a laptop G-60-549DX. His mic is BAD. Voice of cuts to when using Skype. Help!

    I was able to solve the problem with the microphone on the G60-549DX when using Skype.  I spend up to 6-8 hours, talk with convenience stores of HP.  They were very friendly and helpful.  The same help a friend.  My friend downloaded updated bios and micro drivers.  HP technician asked me to turn off the laptop, then remove the battery, unplug the power cord. With battery removed and stop, I pressed the market / off power button for a good minute evacuate remaining power into the computer. When I restarted the laptop I micro worked. I did a little more fine-tuning of the installation of the microphone.  Now, it works well on Skype and sound recorder. I won't take this back within the 14 days return policy.  It's a good computer I can say.  The technicians were all very friendly and helpful.  They called me several times to check to see if it still works OK! They are HUGE!  They want to help with any other question, I have perhaps with the computer.  Thank you very much for the help. Everyone was SO helpful.

  • Anyone having problems with the new iPhone LTE connection 7 on Verizon?

    I am now on my iPhone second 7 with Verizon. I had four phones for me and my family. I have now had issues where I have no signal in the same areas where my signal allows to be strong. I can't solve the problem with the activation/deactivation of the airplane and then mode again in normal mode. My phone will rest with no signal for 5 minutes, then going to LTE with three bars. I also had the problem where I had only 1 x signal, while my son standing right next to me has LTE. And he had the same questions, where I'm on LTE and it gets no signal. I use to have LTE where I live and work all the time, now it's spotty at best. Apple has replaced me and my sons iPhones but not luck. Still do. Any ideas or an any other suffering?

    (1) go to settings/cell phone/cellular data Options/enable LTE and select ONLY the DATA. This seems to solve the problem (as a temporary solution) for most of the people affected by this problem. The bad part is your request might not be as clear (since they cannot use the highest LTE signals) and you can make calls and data at the same time. But it does not solve the issue.

    (2) there are rumors (but you didn't hear that from me that we only are not supposed to discuss beta software program Apple in this forum) that the new version of Apple Beta for iOS (which also includes an update of the software carrier Verizon to 26.0) seems to solve this problem. So, there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
