screen resolution of Windows xp continues to change

Back to basic settinngs reboot continues to change my screen resolution, and I lose all the higher settings.

When I reinstall the driver, it works again until I restart the computer.

I am logged in as administrator.

I have the latest drivers.

Short to do a full install of XP, I am at a loss.

    Hello AhmedKhateeb,

    You will not be able to use Windows applications if you can not get a resolution of at least 1024 x 768. This requirement will not be changed. Many netbooks do not have a resolution of 1024 x 768.

    See Building Windows 8 Blog about this requirement.

  • Screen resolution problems (Windows 10)

    I downloaded the latest trial 9 Captivate for Windows 10 and screen resolution problems. Basically, making the software unusable. A lot of screens and dialog boxes seems larger than the current window, they are in, making the right and downstairs parts invisible window (usually, this is where the 'OK' and 'Cancel' buttons for example).

    I'm Captivate on a laptop running 64-bit Windows 10 (Sony Vaio with an NVidia GT 640 M map graphic with the latest drivers)

    Does anyone know how to fix this? Here are some examples:

    captivate1.PNG

    captivate2.PNG

    captivate4.PNG

    No retina.

    What is the size of the police on? Win10, it is often larger than 100%, which is not really necessary for your resolution, but that's a retina display. I am using Captivate on Win10, but Surface Pro and laptop have a retina display.

  • Can I change the server port, but Windows Mail continues to change at 25

    I can get my outgoing mail working by changing the port from 25 to 587, but whenever I close the Windows Mail application and re-open it, it comes back to port 25 (and will not work). Thanks for the help!

    You should always back up when you use a Microsoft product.  Your hard drive may die too.  But deleting the e-mail account does not delete messages, and repair the database will not ruin it.  I have not had one person complaining about this program (WMUtil) except for one person who said their antivirus software falsely reported that the file is infected (it was not).

    What are you doing with the system when he returns? This behavior indicates something interferents or incompatible with the aero theme, so he stops. You must consider what remains is produced on the system when this happens.

  • Windows 7 continues to change my keyboard for a layout in French

    As I use Word, Outlook etc my keyboard suddenly will go to a French layout, so, for example, I can not type "?", instead, I have to insert the symbol.  I found a Fix - it for Vista, but I'm afraid to run it.

    I have Windows 7 64-bit, my computer is a brand new Dell Studio XPS 9100 and the keyboard is the standard provided by Dell

    Thank you!

    Mark

    You do not have your settings regional French value you? You can check this in the Control Panel, clock, language and region, region and language, then the administration tab and check that there no French listed anywhere.

    I often use the Japanese locale for some games, and that brings up a toolbar at the top for a Japanese keyboard, whenever I change.

    Hope that helps!

  • Windows 7 continues to change my time!

    And which is screwed to the top of my watch and record TV.  It is very annoying.

    I saw the problem with Vista (even if the laptop with Vista my husband never does) and the only answer is about changing the boot time and have to do with the BIOS.

    Well, my Dell with Windows 7 will change time even when it is turned on and I checked the BIOS.  The BIOS is the right time.  When I noticed this tonight (there not save survivor), Win7 says it's 03:00.  It was at 21:15.  I shut down the computer and check the BIOS: 21:15.

    I even put this update automatically every 4 hours. How did get to 03:00?

    There will be a fix for this problem in Win7?  I tried to disable automatic synchronization, changing servers.  And for awhile, it remained solid but then again changed!

    Windows 7 there maybe a bad UTC offset setting?  It is perhaps timing hurt because of this.  Check your zone time and (less obvious) your regional settings in Control Panel.
