Start the display settings button

I turned on my computer the other day and all my settings are gone when I click on the Start button at the bottom left on my desk. I normally have all of my options as we all have, but I have now. The problem has something to do with my customization program. Need help...

Rick,

What is normally the button start is in a very condensed list of info. I don't see on this little list 'WORK' for example.

The small Info window is the following:

DEFAULT PROGRAMS

HP SOLUTIONS

WINDOWS UPDATE

-----------------------------------------------------

PROGRAMS--->

DOCUMENTS--->

PARAMETERS--->

SEARCH--->

HELP AND SUPPORT

RUN

----------------------------------------

SHUTDOWN

How they are listed in a very small condensed form. I hope that this explanation is satisfactory.

Sincerely,

    It could be that your video driver has been reset to some VGA default, rather than the specific card in your system. Check the properties of the display to see if it is correct for your telephone. (Right click on the desktop, properties, settings). You should see the screen and display adapter listed.

    Unlikely, but you can also visit Accessiblility (display) settings in the control panel to make sure that none of those who have been changed.

  • Issues with the display settings - all super tiny

    I have problems with the display settings, all of a sudden, everything was super great and difficult to see all the toolbars on the screen, I went to the settings display, and somehow managed to make everything incredibly tiny.  I found a page via the display settings (avancΘs?) that allowed me to adjust the percentage of the elements on the screen.  I reduced to 40%, and then the setting stuck and now I can not see or read anything.  I'm trying to return to the display settings, but I can't find this 'page' which allowed me to make this change.

    I saw a similar post:

    "I messed up my display settings. my resolution is so great that I don't see anything but black vertical lines and sets of 3 white dotted lines in sequence across my screen. my mouse can not be seen either. is there anyway to restore my original settings? It's as if everything is bigger there should be 200 to 300%.

    Hello

    There are a few things you can try:

    1. reboot the PC then start tapping the F8 key until you get the Windows Advanced on-screen Menu of Options.

    Then choose "last good known Configuration". Allow Windows to start.

    2. restart PC then start tapping the F8 key until you get the Windows Advanced on-screen Menu of Options.

    Then choose "Enable VGA Mode". Windows XP loads with the color values that can handle your "lower" resolution and display driver Once in Windows, change the resolution, then restart the PC.

    3. try to go into "Safe Mode", which is accessible in the same way as "VGA Mode". "Review the same routine as no. 2.

    I tried to hit F8, but nothing happens, I tried to reboot several times.  How do the Advanced Options?  Someone knows it the screen that I talk with the possibility of adjusting the percentages, how can I find it again?  So I can not really read or see anything.

    Hi shamorau,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    (1) do you have because of recent changes, after which the problem occurred?

    The first thing I would say is to update or rather uninstall and reinstall display drivers and who might have to deal with the issue.

    Also I suggest you try to use another monitor to see if it is not a problem with the monitor.

    Let us know if the problem persists after the driver updates.

  • Does anyone can help with the display settings on Satellite 4070?

    My brother gave me his old laptop, a Satellite 4070, I wrongly thought was of Wi - Fi enabled and it is connected to my library with poor results.
    The display settings are gone and continue to go haywire and display a message saying:
    There is a problem with your display settings, the adapter type is incorrect, or the current configuration does not work with your hardware.

    I tried to change the display settings but they go back - anyone got any ideas on that?
    I know there is a product recovery CD, but naturally enough I don't have that either.
    Thank you

    Hello

    I m not exactly on this fault, but it seems there must be something wrong with the graphics driver and display settings.
    That's why I recommend you first remove the old driver and after restarting again try to install the graphics driver from the Toshiba driver page.

    I think you are using the Win98. Am I wrong?
    Then visit Toshiba, download the Trident display driver and install it!

    Good luck and have a nice day ;)

  • Stop the display settings back when the TV is turned off

    Hey,.

    IM using XP Professional SP3, with a geforce 8600gts and my computer is connected to a monitor and my samsung le32b550 tv. They work together perfectly when I put in place in the display settings, but as soon as I put off the TV, it ceases to be spotted and positioned itself in single monitor mode, and when I turn it back on, I have to put up again, that is a bit complicated.

    Is it possible to stop this, that I would prefer not to restore settings and work when I turn it back on again.

    Thank you

  • I am Admin on my PC, but cannot change the display settings.

    I have vista home premium and I can't change my wallpaper. I am logged on as administrator and can change most of the other settings, but a box tells be that the administrator has blocked the launching of the display settings control panel. I don't think that I have never done this, not intentionally at least. I tried to use the parameters of Environmental Variables, but it's like a foreign language to me - I don't know what to do with it. I don't have time for this! I have a job to do. Does anyone know an easy fix for this?

  • Download the file: continue to change the display settings

    Hi all

    These days, he continues to be for no reason.
    I put the display settings to my download folder. The list, by group type, sort by last modified.
    However, without one apparent for this folder, other than asking to display its content, the undisciplined directory view my files in a detailed list with the default sort.

    My path to the download folder have been changed from the original.
    As my Windows is not in English, the name of path is also different from the display name (don't think that will have an impact as the path name is different from the name in all versions of windows-English).

    The setting for the folder is 'General Elements' (in properties/customize).

    Does anyone have the same problem before? In my view, is not only in the download folder.
    Any idea to fix it? I tried using desktop.ini, because I used to do it a lot before, but nothing has changed in this file, when I tried to change the display using the browser configuration.
    As I don't remember the setting of desktop.ini, I looked in the documentation.
    Here: http://hwiegman.home.xs4all.nl/desktopini.html
    And here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/cc144102%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
    I changed the setting to 3 Vid == Mod.
    As the problem appeared at random times, I do not know if my problem is solved :/

    I have of course a question of law in the desktop.ini file.
    If anyone has any idea... =)

    I had a similar problem.

    Certain way when you change the name of the folder.  He lost the file that held the parameters.

    I found that the easiest way is to rename the damaged library, I recommend

    "Temp of library".  Then create a new library with the name of the library, in your case downloads.

    or whatever you want to call it.

    Then in the pane left right click the new library.

    And then in the left pane right-click the library damaged, then copy the 'Library locations' by using the 'include a folder"in your new downloads folder.

    Close windows Explorer.  Reopen and verify that your settings are as you wish.

    You can delete the corrupted library.
