Windows 7 allows me to adjust my screen resolution.

I upgraded my Dell from XP to Windows 7 and it will not allow me to adjust my resolution. I have a screen of slats, and the settings are stuck to the 16-bit with resolution of 640 x 480 color. I have updated all the possible drivers and even downloaded new ones. I disabled the standard vga, hoping he would return to the new but that did not work. I have treid restart in safe mode, but I have always had the ability to change. It's driving me crazy, can anyone help?

  • 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.

  • Reducing the size of the Panel complete front to adjust the screen resolution of 1024 pixels / 786 pixels

    Hello.

    I designed the app and now I found the screen resolution required is 1024/786. I have a lot of orders and indicators and very worried that the façade will lose his eye and he'll take a lot of time to be set for each control and text.

    I wonder if this is the way I could shrink the size of the front panel so it automatically reduces the size of each control and indicator and it fits well in the required resolution. Any ideas?

    Thanks for help

    Kind regards

  • Pavilion G6 2210us + Windows 7/64: impossible to adjust the screen backlight intensity

    I replaced unacceptable Windows 8 on Pavilion G6 computer 2210uS laptop with Windows 7 (64-bit). PROBLEM - I can not adjust the intensity of the backlight display (Fn keys assigned to the change of backlight do not work, they worked in Windows 8). The screen backlight is still full intensity. HP Driver web page does not include some drivers and applications for this laptop, however, I was able to locate the missing drivers on the web sites of chipset of the seller, so the Device Manager shows all devices running and the machine works otherwise OK. What additional pilot program is necessary to enable the keyboard command change the intensity of the backlight screen? Thank you.

    No, it is not normal.

    You tell me that you didn't have the video driver installed correctly.

    Perhaps this is indeed the issue.

    Try the HP Windows 7 driver for your video card and see if it works better.

  • After restoring my system to Windows Vista, my screen resolution is incorrect.

    Screwed up resolution :(

    I had to restore my computer to Windows vista after putting 7 window on it... now my screen resolution is turned off, it is the top of the screen to the bottom, but has 2 black bars on the sides... Ive already tried to settle the reso to max, but this isn't the problem. Help

    Apparently, that's what to do, another great problem, I can't get my internet to work at all, it says there is no network, I can't spend all the discovery network on or anything, and I have NO idea where the original disc is provided with the computer :( Hating technology now

    You have a computer that works (obviously).  You probably have a USB stick/thumb drive/CD or DVD, you can use and a way to write, huh?  Something like that?

    Get what you need to the manufacturer of the computer support and the web page of the driver of your make & model of computer (that you try to fix) while on this computer to work and put these files on the mentioned media.  That put media into the computer you try to set and use the programs installation either him or copy them to the desktop of the computer in question and install from there.

  • Windows 10/ID inconsistent CS6/screen resolution?

    I have a weird problem.  Use the software on adobe for years and this has just started happening when I got a new computer and upgraded to Windows 10.

    I keep my screen resolution to 125% because I need to the larger text, etc.  In Windows 10, I find that Photoshop and Illustrator work well with the resolution of 125%, but InDesign is HUGE and fuzzy.  I have to lower the resolution of the screen at 100% to discern the elements on the screen, but everything else is tiny and I can't go from one program to the other, what I do often.  This means also having to change the resolution of the screen again and again throughout the day.

    My computer guy said that ID behaves correctly although AI and PS not, even if they are the ones that I prefer the size. Here is a screenshot of the character side by side palettes (PS, HAVE, then ID) to 125%.  The versions of Photoshop and Illustrator are clear and easy to read, but the InDesign one is unclear and too much.

    Does anyone have a problem with this or you know a solution to fix?  I don't know why it just started happening that the move to Windows 10.  Do you think that Mobile ID CC would help with this issue?  (I know... I'll have to do later, but this means a lot of work with the already recorded in ID CS6 files, so I am not impatient for there.)  Thanks for any help anyone can give me!

    Why switch to CC means a lot of work with files sooner?

    I might try the tests and see if they help with the issue. The user interface has been updated for HiDPI screens.

  • Portege R700 - cannot adjust the 1366 X 768 screen resolution

    My screen does not have the entire screen - he ends up on about 2cm on the right side.

    The problem is that I can't adjust the 1366 X 768 screen resolution. Highest on the list of options is 1200 X 800. I downloaded the current driver - but it does not help. I used system restore a few times and it is sometimes useful, but not always - IE, it defines the resolution of 1366 X 768, and all goes well.

    It makes me crazy!
    It's a R700, windows 7, 64 bit.

  • 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.
