Why go down my screen resolution

• Screen resolution randomly changes from top down

  With great frequency, I find that my screen resolution has changed since the highest (1680 x 1050) at the lowest.  It takes much effort with the Control Panel, appearance, customization, display settings to make it back to the highest resolution.  Usually, I have to do in stadiums... Set it to second place, save it and then after about TEN TEST - set for the largest.  No idea why this continues to be and if I can help somehow.  I'll let the computer and the resolution will be fine.  I go back to him and he changed.

  My screen is a Samsung SyncMaster 216BW.  I checked for the modernization of the screen, but there is not.  With the help of Visa Home Premium.

  Thank you!

  You don't want to check for the drivers of the monitor; you want to check drivers for your * video card. Uninstall the old drivers and install the new. If this solves the problem very well. If not, then you use some software buggy in the background that changes the screen resolution or your video card has failed. In the first case, try a clean boot. If all goes well, add things at once, back test after each change until you find the culprit. If a clean boot does not work (and you have already updated the drivers), then you are looking to replace the equipment.

  Get the drivers of:

  1. site of the device mftr. ; OR
  2. site of the card mother mftr. If the material is on board; OR
  3. website of the OEM manufacturer for your specific machine if you have a PC OEM (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

  Read the installation instructions on the Web site where you get the drivers.

  To find out what hardware is in your computer:

  1. read all documentation that you got when you purchased the computer.
  2. If the computer is OEM, access the site Web of the OEM for your specific model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers anyway)
  3. download, install and run a program of inventory of the free system like Belarc Advisor or System Information for Windows.

• Why a spare screen resolution would affect the speed of the system?

  I changed my screen resolution from 1024 x 768 to 800 x 600 to test a Web site that I built and that includes another CSS file for 800 x 600 screens. Immediately, I noticed that most of the common functions I do in Explorer - as the opening and closing of windows, goes into the secondary drive, by clicking on the menu Starrt to display programs - were almost twice as fast. The reason for this?

  Hi okieseeker,

  If the graphics card supports higher resolution, then it is one that is recommended to optimize the computer's performance.

  If you decrease the resolution, it would cause the variation in the performance of the computer.

  Hope the helps of information.

  Please post back and we do know.

• XP update demolishes my Qosmio G10-133 screen resolution

  I'm running a two years old G10-133. Great and reliable machine. The reason why I bought it was because he has big screen resolution/sharpness for MS Word and Outlook emails texts.
  For various reasons that I do not download the MS Windows updates that are often available in a pop-up at the start (hint that they may bring more problems than they solve). In any case I have recently (despite running Norton Security all the time) picked up some kind of malware villain in Google which diverts approximately 50% of the links google after a search and then sends to an another search engine with links.

  The Norton firewall and windows not picking up these or clean them up, so I tried the free Spybot to get rid of them to no effect.

  Finally rang Toshiba Europe support and the guy he recommended that:

  (1) do not use Norton. Waste of time and money and slows down the machine. Download the new freeware Windows Defender instead.
  (2) do all the XP updates
  So I started with all the windows updates (charges), including Internet Explorer 7.

  Guess what, after restart the computer is a bit slow grumpy, but worse still, the screen resolution (sharpness and clarity of the text) has deteriorated in Word, Outlook and Explorer.

  So I called Toshiba support again (I'm on a contract of three years warranty) and they could not solve the problem or propose something and seemed surprised that happened. We checked the things of common screen resolution in control without result panels.

  Then I gave up, train of the restoration of the system before any updates.

  The computer is now stable and the resolution of screen back to where it was.

  Issues related to the:
  (1) can I get XP and 7 EXP updates and still get my old (better) screen resolution.
  (2) what to give up idea good/safe Norton for Windows Defender?
  (3) any ideas on how to prevent the diversion of Google links?

  Any help much appreciated

  Hello

  1.) it's very strange and I have never heard bad display quality after the installation of the updates from Microsoft!
  I think you should try to contact the Microsoft support and maybe they know something about this strange behavior.
  But have you tried to update the graphic driver and/or BIOS?

  (2.) it is true. I installed the Norton System Works several months ago and my unit started very slowly with preinstalled Norton Antivirus.
  I removed and use and freeware AntiVirus application called "Antivir".
  I don't want to use the MS Windows Defender. But I'm not saying that this application is bad.

  (3) I don't know what you want to do, but I don't think it has anything to do with your Toshiba laptop ;)

• screen resolution test

  Hello world

  I wonder if anyone has thoughts on it - and maybe suggestions of resources to use.

  Re: screen resolution test for display of the Web site - I find that different online tools all behave in a sort of strange way - and maybe I didn't "win" it.

  Example - if I test my old site, www.robcosh.com on any of these services to see how it appears, choose iPhone 5 like the size just means that they create a rectangle of height and use it as a window to look at my site - where I would have to scroll up and down or sideways.   This does not represent the reality in some way, form!   My iPhone 5 shows my site in full if it is in landscape or portrait position and it is automatically resized to fit the page.

  With this, it seems that these tools are useless to see how a site might behave with different screen resolutions.

  Can all comment and point me to specific tools which I can trust the output of to evaluate the appearance of my sites through a variety of resolutions?

  Thank you very much!

  Design between traditional desktop platform and other types of devices, such as smart phones, is not at all easy.

  While it is true that web browser of any phone smart modern dimensionnera automatically a web site of 'office' to fit its screen phone user must use techniques of pinch-zoom to make the page useful at all. When a web desktop layout is resized to fit the screen of the phone on the arrangement of office content will often too small to read and navigation elements are too small to select with a finger. It's one of the reasons why so many websites have separate versions of 'mobile '.

  In recent years, smart phones have radically increased screen resolution. Many Android-based phones have full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution screens, support of higher resolution like 2560 x 1440. Phone screens are still the same physical size (great for a phone screen, but tiny compared to modern desktop computer monitors), but they pack you in many more pixels in the same room size of screen real estate. This is complicating the situation for the design of a mobile version of a website. Some phones very old still in limited use resolution while some new phones have better than the 1080 p resolution.

  The traditional desktop platform is not standing still either. Probably a layout 960 pixels regular on its own won't. Technical HiPDI are recommended for the gap between the levels of older computer monitors resolution and HD and better than HD parameters used in recent monitors.

  Solution? A good additional amount of planning and work. Adobe Muse doesn't fully support a fully "reactive" approach to web design, but it does support HiDPI and allows for separate mobile and Tablet site generation. Vector graphics will increase in importance. SVG images can properly scale for a variety of screen sizes and large HiDPI implemented. But I think Adobe needs to do a job more improve support SVG in Muse and Illustrator.

• 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.

• Portege 7220 screen resolution problem

  I recently bought a laptop portege 7220 and windows me was installed until I can get more ram added for win xp. The problem I have is that the screen resolution is set at 16 bit color and it is stuck in resolution 800 x 600. I can't go to 1024 x 768 pixels. So instead of having a display full screen, everything is displayed in a small box on the screen. I have tried to install the drivers from the toshiba site and even have local pc tech shop trying to fix it, but to no avail. Does anyone know how I can sort this problem because it's a great laptop and I want just full screen to work. Thanks for reading and any advice/info on the left.

  Hi, this must be a driver issue; your 7220 native resolution is 1024 x 768, that's why 800 x 600 is displayed in a window

  I suggest that you switch to Windows 2000, it works perfectly on a 7220 and has the lower memory requirements than XP
  In W2k there is most appropriate drivers available and with the drivers from the toshiba site, your problem should be solved

  BTW: Make sure that your BIOS settings are good (especially the "extended-mode display"), you should consider updating your BIOS to the latest version

• How to adjust the GUI on different screen resolution?

  Hi all

  I have an application that must be deployed on different stations with different screen resolutions. I want my application to be responsive, that it should be settled well in accordance with the resolution just like sensitive site. Is it possible to do?

  You have at least two simple ways to accomplish what you want: setting the resolution and dispatchers.

  The first automatically adjusts Panel when it is displayed on a screen with a different resolution than it was desigend on

  Dispatchersneed a little more effort: basically, they can be used to change the appearance of the window when they are moved interactively by the operator or by programming with OperateSplitter. You can decide what controls are suitable when a divider ir operated and if they are moved or resized.

  In the case of your example of the user interface, a horizontal separator could be used to resize the text box and move down buttons when the Panel is maximized.

  The choice between these alternatives is on hand: I personally do not feel good with the brutal scale operated when you use the resolution setting so I normall use dispatchers to adapt application windows to the size of the screen.

  You can see examples of the couplings in docking.prj and examples of splitter.prj located in the samples\userit folder. For an example of the first methos, the value attribute setting resolution 100, change the resolution of the screen and see what happens when you launch the program.

• E540 + Dock among Pro - max of the external screen resolution is 1280 x 1024

  Hello

  This issue could be discussed and resolved already somewhere else, but I couldn't find a match for my situation:

  I recently bought the ThinkPad E540 with Pro among docking station, in which I have connected my external LG Flatron IPS236 monitor. LG max resolution is Full HD 1920 x 1080, but for some reason any the max of my external screen resolution is only 1280 x 1024. The screen is connected to the station Pro among DVI port. I have two day of the graphic card drivers and the LG monitor drivers and started the system. I also tried using 75 hertz and framerate of 60 Hz, but without any help.

  What should I try next?

  HA, I finally got. Research on the subject long enough, revealed the cold made that updated Lenovo systems do not provide you with the last set of drivers (graphics card). On the contrary, it prevents actually update you the drivers downloaded from the provider (Intel) site. * beep *.

  So was the solution for this:

  -Remove the display card drivers (Device Manager / display adapter / preferences / adapter / uninstall)

  -The latest drivers downloaded from the web site of the hardware vendor intall

  BUT PLEASE NOTE:

  Just after I had uninstalled the original display card drivers both the external display and the display of the desktop became black. I had to reset my computer and start Windows Mode safe, where I was able to install the new drivers.

  Now my question for Lenovo is: * beep *.

  Why is - that you can not simply to allow installation of the latest drivers from map display through your own update system OR simply give users the ability to update the original adater than newer display drivers.

• Different screen resolution settings

  I did a program on a computer with the setting of screen resolution of 1440 x 900 pixels, and the cover perfectly fits the entire screen. I am now to do a build and apply the program on two computers, one with a higher resolution (no problem) and the other with the highest resolution possible in 1024 by 768 pixels. Can I use the same program, or what I need to change the front panel in the program?

  Go to file > properties VI (or Ctrl + I) and then from the category "" scroll down to the size of the window

  check the "maintain the Proportions of the window for the different screen resolution.

• With L520 screen resolution problem

  So I got my L520 (78595AG) today and to my disappointment the max screen resolution I could achieve was only 1366 x 768. One of the reasons why I chose to buy this laptop was precisely because of HD +. I tried to remove the old drivers and reinstall the new, but to no avail. The computer is fully up to date (ThinkVantage and Windows).

  Any suggestions?

  As far as I know, the only thing I have not tried yet is updated the BIOS, but right now I am running version 8GET33WW (1.10).

  
  

• Screen resolution changed with updates

  I just stop my laptop and he proceeded to make updates. After the updates, it changed my screen resolution and I can't get it back. I have a 3 month-old HP G56, someone knows how to fix this? I tried to change the resolution of the screen in the control panel and it always looks weird. Thank you all

  Suggestions:

  1. set the DPI

  Right-click on a free space of the desktop > customize > column to the left, adjust the size of police (in PPP) > uac prompt > click default scale (96 DPI).

  2 do a system restore, back to the date BEFORE the updates of windows that your restore point.

  Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
  To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.

  Note: change your windows to MANUAL updates.
  After the restoration of the system, the same windows updates will reappear.
  Install them one at a time. Check on the screen. If ok, install another, check on the screen, and so on.
  In this way, you will know for sure if the updates are the culprites.
  If know you that the updates is the culprite mark down its KB # > doing a restore of the system again > when updates will reappear again, right-click the update incriminated > click Hide

• GAME SCREEN RESOLUTION

  I'M TRYING TO PLAY CATCH-UP COMBINATION A BINGO GAME ON GAMESVILLE.  MY SCREEN DOES NOT DISPLAY THE GAME IT IS CUTTING A PART OF THIS GAME ON THE SIDE RIGHT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS... I TRIED TO FIX IT BY GOING INTO MY CONTROL PANEL, BUT I DON'T HAVE A CHANCE... Can you help me?

  The text is easier to read when you are not using caps lock, shift, just to let you know. It reads as so scream.
  In addition, as another note (not to the po), people should not be able to post without specifying what OS they are on because all Windows games forums are merged.

  Increase the resolution for XP : right click on desktop-> properties-> click the tab more right at him-> superior, move the resolution slider to the right, and click on apply (repeat until the image on the screen doesn't sound bad)

  Increase the resolution to 7 : right click on desktop-> screen resolution-> click the resolution drop-down box-> move the cursor up

  If this does not work then maybe you can try to make the smaller game by zooming in on your web browser

  Zoom for Internet Explorer:   Page-> Zoom-> Zoom

  Zoom for Firefox: -> rear view-> Zoom Zoom

  Good luck.
