(Redirected) Low resolution monitor Dell E1914H

Hello. I have the monitor Dell XPS E1914H 8700 and Windows 8.1. I am very dissatisfied with the clarity of the screen. When the desktop is active, it is as if I see pixels. Also, programs and Web pages are not clear, significantly less clear than they did on the Dell IN1910N. Is it possible to get this monitor to project more clearly? Or do I have to return it and get something else.

  • Monitor Dell E1914H - move icons closer edge of the screen

    Would appreciate advice on how to move the icons to the edge. Especially on the right side - the closer, I can move is 1 inch from the edge. A lot of waste of real estate...

  • Dell E1914h little black line problem

    Monitor Dell E1914h I have two problem has first the driver is not installed and showing the error shown in the picture, there are small black line on the right side of the screen, as shown in the last two photos below.  I have the solution to these problems as soon as possible?

    Hello

    Thanks for joining us.

    Let me answer your questions one by one

    1. the error message on the driver could be due to the compatibility of the OS, just checked the drivers available, there is no driver for Windows XP I see is the operating system you are running.

    You can close the popup and continue to use the PC as I do not expect the instructor to stop working without this driver.

    2. the downside seems to be a task or dead pixels. You can try this monitor on another PC or another monitor on this PC to confirm the problem is with the monitor.

    The fix for the problem 2 is to replace the monitor. Dell monitors to go with the standard warranty of 3 years. If during the warranty period, we can cover this issue.

    Thank you

  • High resolution monitor and VMware Workstation, causing the system to hang

    I usually like VMware / WS... I used VMware / WS for many years with problems little / not serious - until recently.

    I'm under WS 6.5.1 on MS/Windows/XP/Pro/SP2 (host), and 2 guests of virtual machines: RHEL4 and MS/Windows/XP/PRO.

    Recently I bought a SAMSUNG T260 (1920 x 1200) high-resolution screen - I really like (I also used SAMSUNG monitors for many years with little / no serious problems).

    Currently, I am frequently (several times a day) see the two VMware / WS (all guests) and my XP any host COMPLETELY FREEZES up.  The only way out of this is perhaps a shutoff of the system and then restart.

    Needless to say it is (IMHO) a OFF THE CHARTS SERIOUS PROBLEM... with all fingers pointing to VMware / WS (TBD).

    Previously, I was running on a HP low resolution screen 1280 x 1024.  I can run for days/months/still without seeing the problem above.

    Also, I believe many/most/all lower resolution monitors is likely no other problems (be it).

    This is a 'system to freeze the scenario:

    1 pass to MS/Win/XP vm host RHEL (mode full-screen)

    2. press quickly on full screen non-plein screen

    3. If I do the above too fast my entire army system freezes up.

    Any body else see something like that?  Any ideas/help/suggestions will be appreciated.

  • 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.

  • External monitors Dell Inspiron 15 (7537) with Nvidia GT750M.

    I am literally pulling my hair!  I can't find specs tell me what types of resolutions and refresh of the monitor are supported.

    The laptop has only a HDMI port (no DisplayPort - I did not notice it before placing my order mid-2014) and now I'm stuck with HDMI.

    This weekend I tried hang my laptop to a 4 K TV - it made the TV - but only if the internal display was given - and, even in this case, the refresh rate was really bad... I'm only a casual viewer video - but I found the jerks of unacceptable frame rates.  This suggests strongly that the laptop is not HDMI 2.0. I know now that I must look at lower resolutions 3840 x 2160

    I want to know... If I buy a WQHD monitor and connect it to HDMI, it displays in 2560 x 1440 while also driving the internal 1080 p monitor... or what I have to go down up to 1920 x 1200?

    All this is * very * frustrating.  I hope someone can tell me what my laptop will support (to the native resolution and native refresh rate.)

    I am pleased to announce that... Fortunately for me... the post above to 1920 x 1200 being the maximum external resolution is flat.

    I read the response a few minutes after I had placed an order (after carefully checking the return policy) for a monitor Samsung WQHD (a S27D850T).  I have it plugged into my Dell Inspiron 15 7537 (with graphics GeForce GT750M and weird HDMI Intel connection as the only option for an external monitor) it ensures * BRILLIANTLY *-no configuration issues; 60 Hz refresh rate; 2560 x 1440 resolution.  It extends from my internal display.  Perfect performance, as far as I can tell!  No quality no questions at all.

    I can also confirm that my Dell Inspiron 7537 * may * lead a 4 K TV over HDMI... I tested this weekend... It is not clear if it's the fault of the TV 4 K, the Dell or a combination of both... but only, I could get 30 Hz refresh and the rendering of images in movement at UHD resolution was not acceptable - it felt 10-15 fps.  I tried 3 different sets of 4K (because I could not find all the monitors 4K!) Two does not have an image to 4 K - the third, only when I turned off the clean laptop screen.  Perhaps I might have gotten a 4K screen work... but I am very happy with my purchase WQHD.

    I can recommend the WQHD Samsung S27D850T for the Dell 15 7537 port HDMI Intel with chipset Nvidia GeForce GT750M.  I can not, however, recommend Dell on its documentation, or support.

  • 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.

  • SL400 - low resolution with HDMI to the TV connection

    I'm trying to connect my laptop to my Toshiba HD ready TV (2743abg - exact model) SL400.

    I use a HDMI HDMI connection.

    I get very low resolution unbareable - 768 x 480.

    I looked at the Intel Driver software installed and it is the maximum resolution, it allows!

    something is obviously wrong.

    any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    I found a solution and thought I'd share, if someone will have a similar problem.

    in the display properties, settings, advanced, monitor - uncheck "hide them modes that this monitor cannot display". has given a whole bunch of new resolutions to choose from. most worked wonders on my TV.

  • Terrible resolution on Dell XPS 13 model 2015 QHD problems

    With really bad resolution problems on Dell XPS 13.

    I use it for the University, and I'm doing a computer course and therefore the command line is an important feature. The text is completely zoomed out, I've went into properties and maximized the police nothing helps. Here's what it looks like, the image cannot do justice - I really have to squint to read it.

    Most of the other programs are like that too. Unity 3D looks really blurry, Sublime text 2 has the same appearance. Text looks similar to it has been enlarged on a few times so it adapts to the resolution and so you can almost see the individual pixels on the text.

    Here is another program: Malwarebytes

    It kinda feels a joke because the laptop is worth more than a thousand books.

    RICO GOLDSTAR
    You may also need to change the resolution on your graphics card because NVIDIA has also been causing me problems.

    Updated, also check options in your INTEL graphics driver display resolution, make sure they match, don't no conflic t with the parameters of resolution on your Dell laptop. THEN, you might have to restart your laptop to see the changes on your screen. Lower resolution will make a lot of new/updated apps updated and programs are all looking mean, BUT your older programs designed for windowx 7-8, and less than 4 k resolution, must appear normal.

  • In Windows 7, icons in the system tray / notification look area low resolution

    Here's a screenshot of my notification area / system tray (whatever it's called now) flying:

    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
    God bless you
  • 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.

  • computer returns to a lower resolution when I boot

    Hi, I recently installed the graphics card Nvidia Geforce GT 610 in my HP computer and since then I had problems with the resolution of the screen. My computer has never had problems with a resolution before installing the graphics card. Whenever I start my computer, it comes down to a lower resolution and it corrects the resolution after that I restarted the computer. I have re-installed the graphics card driver, checked my BIOS and tried to look online for a solution.

    My computer also now issues once I start it only happened once I installed the graphics card. Also, when I go to look at screen resolution settings in the Control Panel, the display of the "(Default Monitor) lists on" in the initial commissioning, the changes in the "HP 2009", which I assume is the correct setting after reboot. " I have no idea how to fix this and I don't know if this affects the functionality of my computer, but if anyone has any suggestions I would be very happy.

    * Edit: I did some digging around and I noticed that on initial start-up, my monitor is not detected by my computer. When the computer reboots, so, my screen in my devices and printers. I don't know if this is the problem, but no one knows why this happens and how I can fix this problem? Thank you.

    Honestly, I have no idea what the problem is at this point. There is no indication that the graphics card is causing the problem, and the computer works normally too. NVIDIA customer support did not help at all either. Their suggestions actually caused my computer to freeze, but it was fixed with the Startup Repair tool. As I said but it's a cheap card, so when I can afford it, I'm probably going to upgrade to a new computer and card. Thanks for your help!

  • Stuck in low resolution, 640 x 480. I can't change the display resolution

    HP Pavlion p7 - 1247c. I'm stuck at 640 x 480. I can get to the resolution setting change, but the display setting is grayed out so I'm stuck at 640 x 480. I can boot into safe mode and I can't change resolution while in mode without failure, but not when I boot normally. I tried a system restore how it was first delivered to me. I can't complete the initial installation, because I'm in 640 x 480 and I can't see or click on the button continue because it's off the screen.  I found there a boot at low resolution option which is where I seem to be stuck. I can't find a way to disable the start-up at low resolution. In addition, it seems that initial Setup requires a wide aspect ration monitor. This does not work with my old monitor who will be 1280 x 1024, but is stuck at 640 x 480.

    Looks like I finally figured it was the DVI cable that shipped with the computer. I swapped the cable with another computer and now it works.

    I guess I should be happy to have solved the problem, but I'm not. Perhaps because the solution was too simple and it took me so long to try it.

    I delivered the computer back to HP for no reason, they replaced the motherboard for no reason. I lost a lot of my time for no reason. I lost the time of four different technical support.

    I think the real reason I tried swapping the cable is the last tech support guy said that he would not be the cable. This proves just that sometimes it's the easiest part of the whole system that can cause the most problems.

    If one HP had shipped a good cable in the first place.  :-(
