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.

    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.

  • Laptops, screen resolution and CS5

    Hello

    I'm planning to buy a laptop to run CS5. I gave a few days when I discovered that all laptops under £1000 have a resolution of 1366 x 768. Even those who claim to be full HD, read the fine print, seem to be full HD only when playing a movie.

    I intend to buy this one:

    http://www.asuslaptop.co.UK/prodDetail.php?prod=N53SN-SZ085V

    until I read the full HD is only used to display movies...

    Right now I'm completely confused because I used to run Adobe in my laptop, before versions of CS started the screen resolution higher demand. Does this mean I can't find a laptop under £ 1,000 to run CS5?

    Thank you

    Try this:

    It is available at LaptopsDirect to all about £800.

    The resolution is OK, so is the graphics, for the CS5 first, but the HARD drive is low, and there is no Bay for a second HDD.  It also has a firewire port. I'm editing HDV on one of them, using a disk external eSATA for multimedia files.

    At some point, I'll probably replace the HDD with a Seagate Momentus XT.

    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?

  • How to set the screen resolution and font size?

    I turned on my computer and it suddenly opted for the super big characters such as when it is running in safe mode. I entered the customization and tried to change the DPI (dots per inch) and it is said that I already use smaller size icons and only gives me the opption to makes them bigger. I restarted several times and have had no joy, so any help would be much appreciated... TTFN

    Assuming that you do not use Vista...

    Have you changed to 96 DPI ?

    In any event my suggestion is do a system restore. Choose a datebefore you had this problem as your restore point.

    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.

    It s nice that your monitor supports the screen resolution 1920 x 1080, but you should check your owner's manual.

    On page B-4, you will find a list of the supported screen resolution and I must say that the resolution 1920 x 1080 is not taken in charge.
    You can select 1920 x 1440 but not 1920 x 1080.

  • HP Pavilion p6823w: the HP screen resolution

    So I just recently installed the preview of Windows 10 and I ended up getting very large screens as usual. So I used some old drivers when I was looking for them for Windows 7. I installed all the drivers that I kept and time stand, auto screen resized itself and it was 1600 x 900, which is the size of my screen. Overview of Windows 10 being in beta, there was a lot of bug so I decided to remove 10 Windows and install Windows 8.1. When I tried to use the same drivers, the screen remained the same at 1280 x 1024.

    How does this work again? Auto, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10 works resize screen, but not the Windows 8.1? WIndows 8 and Windows 8.1 do not have the same modules? How that even make any sense. And what makes it all even funnier how will Windows 10 preview (Beta) can pick up and automatic resizing with the same drivers in Windows 7 and Windows 8?

    Well. Might as well scratch or close this message. My computer no longer works because I wanted to was to resize the screen resolution and now my BIOS killed my computer. Sigh...
