Samsung LN46A550 - resolution 16:9 on VGA?

I never had a problem with that when you run Windows XP, but now all of a sudden I can't use resolution 16:9 with Windows 7 on the VGA.

Don't really mind except that now, I need to plug the TV via DVI > HDMI converter and performance HDMI cable to my TV with three HDMI so that my VGA port goes unused ports.

I plan to go back to Windows XP because I can't find an answer to this question.

I use a motherboard Intel ICH9R with a Radeon HD 4870, if that makes a difference.

Hello

Before installing the XP operating system, we can check more options and see if they help.

Refer to this Samsung support/troubleshooting link and check.

  • Resolution of monitor and TV

    Frank,

    Another question.   When using the two DVI to TV and VGA for monitor's resolutions be defined automatically?

    If so, they will be the maximum rates that I previously posted in my other thread?

    Monitor Acer Max res is 1680 x 1050 and the max of Samsung HDTV. resolution is 1920 x 1080... When it is connected through my instructions, your system will define resolutions independently at these resolutions.

  • Resolution is dependent on the video graphics card memory?

    Resolution is dependent on the video graphics card memory? If that's true then how much resolution a 2 GB card can support? I mean on what map I'll be able to run a game like 'NFS RUN' on a resolution higher, if I have 2 cards with the same specifications but difference is 1 GB and 2 GB, I don't speak of GDDR3 128 bit NVDI GT 440. ?

    Resolution is dependent on the GPU, and not on the installed memory. The memory will help the screen refresh more quickly, and video help in smoother race.

    According to the specs here:

    http://www.GeForce.com/hardware/desktop-GPUs/GeForce-gt-440-channel/specifications

    You should be able to get a maximum digital resolution of 2560 x 1600 and an analog-resolution 2048 x 1536 (VGA). This assumes of course that your monitor will be very high. The highest card ira is limited by the capabilities of the monitor also.

    Thus, the memory card more than video, that you, smooth graphics should work, but it will have no effect on the resolution.

  • When I connect my laptop L300D to my LCD tv using VGA to VGA it works fine for a few minutes then the screens n that the laptop and TV started blinking on and outside. Can someone advise please.

    Hello

    Try changing the VGA cables and check if it helps.

    If the problem persists, then I suggest you to update the firmware.

    Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  • Set up an old TV / VGA to RCA (1yellow) - what gives?

    I'm trying to connect my laptop to my old TV which has only rca records. Laptop has a vga out alone. So, after a little obstructionisme at frys-(ne pas vouloir payer 60 pour ce truc de coffret, ils avaient--j'ai commandé un câble adaptateur RCA/S-vidéo VGA.) To my dismay, I now have trouble getting the video to show. I did my audio separately that comes through the tv fine. I was playing with it in the display settings IE. lowering the resolution, "corresponding upward monitors" which I did not quite understand highlighting Monitor 2 (the little icon - one who is somehow not highlighted in gray and checking "enable this monitor" and "do this my main monitor" I can get it the same size as 1.) Nothing appears on the TV. Doesn't seem to work. I'm trying to figure out if my video card will allow me to move to a 'TV' defining possibly? Maybe there's a driver that will allow this? So far I can say I have a "mobile intel 4 series express chipset family '. I feel now is that the video card, I may not be able to support the installation of the adapter - without some heavy DIY - ideas whiz kids?

    Hello

    The resolution provided by the VGA output must be within the limits of the TV that is connected in. If no video is shown, there are two possibilities. The video that came out of the computer is too high of a resolution or the RCA VGA adapter is defective.

    Keep in mind that most graphics cards do not have the possibility of a resolution that appears on the TV, as they are designed for the video output on the monitor output.

  • Turn on two HP Pavilion 500-319na DVI ports

    I just bought a HP Pavilion 500-319na which has been described as having 1 x HDMI, 2 x DVI video interfaces.

    The GeForce GT 705 nvidia graphics card has 1 x HDMI, 1 x DVI taken

    The motherboard has also 1 x taken DVI which was capped with a small piece of plastic with "do not remove" on the subject.

    After advice from PC World, I removed the plastic and tried the DVI socket mother who did not work.

    Is there a way of making the motherboard DVI to work in parallel with sockets of graphics cards.

    Finally, I would like to run two monitors from the DVI Sockets at the same time and have the HDMI enabled.

    This is my first Post ever anywhere so apologies if there is not enough information.

  • w2216h via DVI - flicker, too much text, etc.

    Hello. I'm on a HP a6614f with screen w2216h.

    I have upgraded to a Nvidia GeForce 9500 GT from PNY video card and have been connecting the monitor and the card via VGA. Today I received my DVI-HDMI adapter (down a cheap eBay HK if it makes a difference) in the mail and tried out. The image was horrible! There are vertical lines everywhere. I could solve this problem by going to the Nvidia Control Panel and change the format digital color of RGB to YCbCr44. However, I always had other problems.

    The screen flickers a lot, sometimes to two or three seconds at a time, or even longer. Text would also look too strong, making it hard to read, and it is an area in the middle of the screen where the text would be a blur. The blur seems to correct itself (I didn't really do anything but to disconnect and reconnect the HDMI cable to the end of the adapter) but the problem of a text sharpness and flicker still exists. Also, the colors were a bit off. For example, the red underlining of Firefox for misspelled words appear gray.

    My resolution when you use VGA is 1680 x 1050, which is the native resolution. When I switch to HDMI, the native resolution is higher than this and when changed to that resolution is horrible. The edges are cut off or something, so I left it to 1680 x 1050, which is what I am anyway.

    Anyone has ideas how solve my problems? I am currently using VGA.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

  • I get a 0x000000003b System_Service_Exception shortly after starting... (graphics driver as possible, external drive possible?)

    Not quite sure the cause.

    I was in the shower, my wife tried using my computer and he went to two monitors go black screen. I hardbooted he took.  When he started my vga monitor showed the charger of the bios, the loader of windows, then double black screen for about 10 seconds and then it restarts.

    I reboot with only the vga is plugged, I started having chkdisk running on one of my external USB drives.  I'd get to the user interface of connection and choose profile admin / default and before the screen goes to the office is blue screen with the error above, 10 seconds passes, it restarts.

    I unplug my external drives and still only vga, (and he only ran chkdisk on just an external, not both my references external and not on one of my internals 2.)  and boot it - I get to connection ui - i can choose my profile or my profile comments/woman and he goes to the Office - until it finish loading all the stuff of taskbar, bluescreens on me, the same error and restarts after 10 seconds.

    I start and go to safemode still only vga, I get desktop on my profile but safemode is no way to really "use" a computer. It is stable, so I hope someone nice enough here can help me recover.

    for these 2-3 weeks I stayed on my profile, have restarted, there a few times and everythings been groovy.
    About 2-3 weeks ago, I updated a bunch of patches, one of them being my nvidia drivers.  -THAT was a huge problem.

    I had the HDMI connected only at the time of the update. After the update - it defined the default resolution as 13xxby768.  My TV do not like this resolution and cannot evolve in it - so it glitches out my TV and says he has a resolution of 1 p. It also disabled supported dual monitor after the patch, if it is used to run monitors separate dualview.  I had to unplug hdmi, vga only in.  change it back to its best fit of 1440 x 900.  the driver blasted nvidia won't let you set resolutions for screens nonhooked upward, and it won't let you turn on dualview without these two things hung or cloneview.  so I flew over my mouse of choice of resolution area, removed the vga, plugged into the socket hdmi, clicked on a random selection and press ctrl + A to apply it. Once the monitor flickered and remained black, I knew I had an another nonscaleable to resolution, I hit down arrow, ctrl + has once again and got on my second try - a few ridiculous low resolution, then put to scale up his goodness was 1080 p best.  Since that time, I wasn't going to the profile of my wife.

    I think that its possible she hit my making usb cable unplugged the external hard drive.  Or it may have been when she has "changed the user" instead of "disconnecting" as repeatedly, telling him not "change user" he had a huge conflict with trying to keep my resolution and possibly default resolutions on their profile which has been forced by the patch (but does not explain why I can return to my office with nothing connected for a few seconds and it's good resolution for vga).

    I tried to read other messages on this forum and it seems that this may be associated with two graphics cards and removal of hard drives.  However, all the stuff on the disassembly of the drives appeared to apply to the winserver 2003, however, I could be wrong.  I wish myself a an extremely capable user but the drivers and hardware are 1up me.  Thanks a lot in advance to anyone who can help me.  If I need to do a dump or something, to give you more information, would you please tell me how to do this - I know very well my way around safe mode.

  • Latitude E7450 processor and controller, E - 2, unstable configuration port of the U2715H - two monitors-

    I have two monitors U2715H connected via a CDM-> DP cable each to a docking station E-Port Plus (in fact an Advanced Port Replicator EURO2) in which sits a laptop Latitude E7450 processor and controller. All items are brand new. E7450 processor and controller is equipped with 16 GB of RAM and two graphics cards: Intel HD 5500 Graphics and NVIDIA GeForce 840 M; selection is automatic, which usually means that the 5500 is running. It runs Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 (64-bit). The docking station has apparently DP 1.2 a capacity (for chaining) but DP 1.2 is disabled in both monitors.

    I have correctly configured the system to have Windows desktop space both monitors at 2560 x 1440 resolution, even with screen internal latitude as a third request for an extension to its full resolution (1920 x 1080). The main screen can be set to one of the two (or three) and I can successfully move the sequence of monitors around (left, middle, right).

    There is therefore no doubt about the ability of the system to support the planned configuration. However, when I dock the Latitude (most with the lid closed) and start, most of the time he is unable to restore the configuration of the two external monitors. Some of the symptoms are: one or two monitors go black, indicating the cable connected but no signal from the docking station. If there is a picture on one of the monitors at startup, it may or may not contain the login screen. (I can still log in because I know which keystrokes to send.) If the login screen is visible, it is usually in low resolution. If I have several active screens, but one is black, I can move the mouse pointer (or an entire window) on the screen black (in the middle or on the side), but it is not visible here.

    Both monitors come right out of the box and the only change I made is to move from the DP to the mDP as input channel. I reinstalled the cables and exchanged the cables between the two DPs on the docking station. I turned the market monitors. I ran the self-test the requirements on both monitors. The connection of the laptop on the docking station is a little wobbly, but I use the spacer provided for the E7450 processor and controller and making sure the connection is correct and stable. I've updated all the drivers and BIOS of processors E7450 and controller. I recently saw a reference to a BIOS for the docking station; I didn't know it existed, but I'm not.

    The installation instructions provided with the monitors were a note on consulting the CD provided for the use of the screen to maximum resolution. E7450 processor and controller is not an optical drive, but I read all of the documentation for the monitor to Support technical without finding what whatsoever to shed light on the situation (in addition to ensure that the graphics card and drivers are up to the task).

    Once I connected, I can manage to make it all in order by randomly (?) lower the resolution of the screen, change the position of the main screen (left-center-right), deselection reselection CDM as entry way and forcing other changes. Once the two or all three screens in operation, I can put them all to maximum resolution and beginning of work. However, it is rather annoying and I would like to have a stable configuration.

    The configuration seems to survive power cycling of the laptop / station but not if I also disconnect the laptop. I should mention that when I detach the E7450 processor and controller, I can use it in other configurations, with or without other external monitors through other ports, before turning it off and later re - anchor as described. However, for the first month I had two old non-moniteurs Dell of any resolution (on DVI and VGA ports) connected to the docking station and the configuration is stable, and for years I used for my older Latitude with a docking station that is older, remembering his device between different hardware configurations.

    Please, someone - and Dell support staff in particular?

    (Editing/updating after transfer of the Forum/devices/Forum/computer laptop and video monitors)

  • How to disable integrated on the Dimension 3000 video?

    I'll install a videocard ATI Radeon HD 2400 PCI in Dimension 3000 my son.  I will also be upgrading the RAM of the system with

    2 GB (2 x 1 GB) DDR 400 (PC 3200).   How can I disable the video integrated on this system?  In addition, any "lessons learned" to do any update on this system would be greatly appreciated.                 Thank you, Jack

    There is no way to disable the built-in manually video material.  The BIOS has two parameters of the video card; Auto and on board.  The last forces the use of the integrated video, the first is supposed to allow the BIOS to switch automatically to a PCI graphics card.

    The first thing to do is to restart the computer, use F2 to the Dell screen to go to the configuration and verify that the BIOS is set to automatic in the video menu.  Allow the computer start and go into the Device Manager.  Find the Intel graphic card in the display section of maps, right-click to bring up its properties.  Go to the menu "Use" at the bottom and select "don't not use this device - disable.  Restart the computer to verify that you are now a standard low resolution (640 X 480) VGA screen.  This action forces the loading of the VGA driver so that when you install the actual card, you will be able to get a display.  Turn the machine off and disconnect all install them the card.  Remove all external devices except the keyboard and mouse.  The cable of the port monitor built into the port on the new video card.  Power supply and start the computer.

    Let the computer finish starting.  You should be able to see the VGA display, as you did when the monitor is always connected to the onboard video port.  If you do not, something is not right.  Do not try to load the driver for the card, unless you can get a VGA display on it.  First thing to try if you see nothing is to pass the card in another PCI slot.  If that does not do it, remove the power of the computer and reset the NVRAM by removing the cell of the backup of the main card for about a minute.  Replace the cell, connect the power supply and start the computer.  If you still don't see the VGA screen, you should try another card.  Some of the older Dells did not get along with ATI cards.

    If you see the VGA screen, put the diskette of drivers for the video card in your CD ROM drive and install the driver.  I guess the drive of ATI's NET software framework on it; This software is necessary before you can install the driver.  I hope that your installation manual includes the details.
