  • Netbook Windows 7 Starter screen resolution

    Hi all

    I use an Acer AOD255 netbook with the following specifications:

    1 GB of RAM with 1.75 GB ReadyBoost

    Intel Atom N450 1.66 GHz Dual-core

    Graphics Mobile Intel (integrated graphics CPU)

    Windows 7 Starter 32-bit

    resolution 1024 x 600

    I hung it on a Samsung monitor running at a resolution of 1920 x 1080, and I was wondering if a resolution on this material will slow down Windows at all.

    Basically, a 1920 x 1080 resolution will slow this netbook?

    Thank you

    The netbook will run at the same speed there always - but try to play videos in this resolution can lead be hashed because of physical limitations.  Otherwise, for use other than video and type (games, etc.), you should notice very little difference.

  • Recent update has changed my screen resolution?

    Recent update of windows changed my screen resolution. Blow up all my icons, wallpaper and extends the size of windows. Pages do not correspond to windows, the computer and on the web. It is the second time that this happens, and I don't know how I straightened the last time. I know this isn't a major problem, it's just frustrating, as it has a mind of its own.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

  • 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.

  • 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.
