Vista screen resolution?

Hello world

How can I change my screen resolution?

Thank you

Serdar Baykara salvation,

Right-click on your desktop and in the menu that appears, click Customize. In the window customize, click the display settings link (to the bottom of the window). When opens the display settings window, move the slider to increase or decrease the screen resolution. Make sure that you do not increase the display resolution more that your monitor will build the case, you may have problems. The screen resolution will change and a box will appear asking you if the resolutin is OK. This box has a timeout. If the resolution is OK, and then click the OK button. If it isn't, then click on no and try another resolution of the screen.

  • I just installed windows vista ultimate on my PC. I am not able to adjust my screen resolution.

    I am not able to adjust the resolution of my screen with Vista Ultimate.  If it's in 16 bits, the graphics are excellent, but the sizing of everything is huge.  There is a slide bar, but I am unable to move it.  It is in the lowest position, and he said get it up for sizing, but it won't let me.  If I use anything other than 16 bits, I can get my sizing down, but my graphics are bad.  Any ideas?

    Go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/laptop > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

    Once you have the latest graphic drivers, then change it.

    If there is no avauilable of graphics drivers for Vista, you're out of luck.

    Change the screen resolution

    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.

    See you soon.

  • Page of Yahoo mail that says 'there a screen resolution problem". A in case of problems with all stakeholders, even all the browsers. The question is Firefox!

    I have the latest version of Yahoo mail. When I click on the link "mail" of my Yahoo homepage, he directs me to a page that reads, "There is a problem of screen resolution". In the body of this page, it explains how to fix the problem. BUT, I don't have a problem with the resolution - the screen resolution should be 1024 x 600 or greater and IT IS! This only happens with YOUR browser. I have Chrome and IE, neither of which is a problem. I worked with a representative of the yahoo mail support and he explains that it IS a problem with Firefox and for raise you awareness and fix the problem - I use a Vista operating system on a computer and Windows 7 on my other computer, which has the same problem, so we KNOW for sure, it's a Firefox issue.

    I don't think that the effects of this question all those who use Firefox because I'm able to visit Yahoo Mail without any problems. I would say that to reset the zoom of the page on the page, this issue occurs on. You can do these steps go to view > Zoom > reset or press (Ctrl + 0 (zero).

  • How can I change screen resolution in firefox in 1280 x 720

    Recently, I switched to windows vista ultimate.
    I installed firefox 4.0.1.
    When I open firefox the screen resolution goes to 1280 x 720 to 800 x 600 (or 640 x?).
    How can I fix so I have 1280 x 720?

    If I have to can use Win Explorer how I transfer my firefox bookmarks to explore

    I think that this may be caused by a parameter in the shortcut that allows you to start Firefox. If you close Firefox and right click on the shortcut (for example, on the desktop or quick launch, is relevant), choose Properties, then the Compatibility tab, try to clear all settings. Then restart Firefox. Who help me?

  • Satellite A200-1AX: Win7 has very limited screen resolution

    ?:| Can someone help me please?

    I have a SCREEN RESOLUTION (1280 x 800) after that I went to w7, before I can get about 1600 x 1280 when I was in very limited vista. I lost my vista recovery disk so I decided to go with w7, but after that I did some installations/updates to update for all my drivers again my screen resolution gives me the size 1280 x 800 maximum.
    Anyone? Please? I need your suggestions...

    -J' have a Satellite A200 1AX (recently moved from vista to w7)
    -Screen: 15.4 "
    -My graphics card is ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600.
    -I just downloaded the latest driver from ATI.

    Please tell me what I'll do.
    Thanks in advance guys...: D
    Jeje

    > Until I can get around 1600 x 1280 when I was in vista
    I can't believe that why?
    Because the screen internal 15.4 "WIDE XGA supports a maximum resolution of 1280 x 800.
    Max which is possible on the internal display, and as a result, you will not be able to choose a higher resolution on the internal display.

    The resolution of the external display may be higher but not the resolution of the screen internal.

  • Screen resolution automatically change to 800 x 600 after hibernation - 945GM Express chipset - Solution

    Hello

    If you use VISTA SP1 RC2 or RTM shipped version last week with a 945GM Express chipset video you probably having trouble with the screen resolution to 800 x 600 on the release of sleep.

    INTEL has released a new version of the driver on their website v15.7.3. This works very well on my R300 Portage, should work on other machines as well, even if it is a generic driver.

    I hope this helps!

    Hi Gery

    Thanks for the useful information.
    I noticed a similar problem with Vista running on my laptop no-Toshiba, that certainly helps update the graphics driver.

  • Satellite A - wrong screen resolution in games

    Hello

    I change the operating system from Windows Vista to Windows 7 64 bit home and I download the driver for Windows but when I play games, it seems 1024 * 768 pixels and my laptop has 1366 * 768 pixels.

    So anyone who has a solution to this problem please help

    Hello

    Unfortunately, I think you have to offer more details on your problem as the number of exact model laptop and all the games that you play.

    Important point is that the game must support the native screen resolution of your screen, otherwise, you are not able to use 1366 * 768 pixels. You should check this first!

    Also make sure that this new Toshiba display driver is installed and update your DirectX version.

  • Satellite A500: Can not change screen resolution

    I have an A500 - 15 M with a 16 "display, which is more than a year.
    He worked always very happy with a resolution of 1366 * 768, which is the size of the screen (a little unusual).

    No reason apparent, this morning, it starts with a screen resolution of 1280 * 800 and does not anyway to get back to its normal resolution.
    The result is a screen that is not full width of the screen, but which covers the bottom.

    Vista option display settings will not allow anything beyond the amount of 1280 * 800 and no fiddling with the graphics settings (Intel) will fix the problem.
    OS is Vista32 but the problem is still there after a relocation in 64-bit mode.

    I have this terrible feeling that I did something really stupid, but I am at a loss now - any suggestions or help would be very appreciated

    Hello

    You have an Intel graphics card?
    I think that first you need to update the graphics driver.
    To be honest, I never had no problem changing the screen resolution, but I would like to reinstall the driver first.

    I think you could try the latest driver for graphics card in the Intel page.
    These drivers should be up to date so try it out and then try to change the resolution again.
