Windows 8 resolution problem

Windows 8 recognizes my second monitor, but only as a generic pnp monitor.

I use a dual monitor configuration. I have 2 of the same screen connected to my computer Dell desktop, located at the w2071d of hp. Once I saw the two screens that are recognized as the same thing (HP w2071d) but about 99% of the time it is recognized as LCD_VGA even if it is only a black LED turned on monitor. When I go to advance settings, here he said generic PnP monitor, I tried to reinstall the drivers and it didn't do anything that I have also try to update my drivers also, both with monitors and graphix card, the second monitor can turn on but can't go on 1280 x 1024 and done a little weird like that. It is supposed to go to 1600 x 900, any ideas how to fix?

Specifications of the computer:

64-bit Windows 8

Dell Alienware x 51

Intel Core i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz

6 GB of Ram

NVIDIA Geforce GT 640

First monitor: HP w2071d

Second monitor: HP w2071d

Don't forget that both of my monitors are the same model, the other is messed up

Use NVIDIA Control Panel to force a custom resolution?

  • Dell Inspiron 1501 on Windows 8 resolution problems

    I have a Dell Inspiron 1501 and recently installed windows 8 pro on it. Before installing, I had a maximum resolution of 1280 x 800 under vista and now my only option of resolution is 1024 x 768. I do a lot of photo editing and such on my laptop and the screen resolution that makes it nearly impossible when scaling and resizing of images. I tried the update of drivers and have even installed the old driver for my graphics card as well as you try to run the Catalyst Control Center, the compatibility mode, and nothing has worked. It is said that the chain of the card I use now is the graphics card of Microsoft. I was wondering if it is possible to get my resolution up to 1280 x 800.

    My graphics card is an ATI Radeon Xpress 1150.

  • 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:

    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.

  • Satellite C70 - A - 16 L - screen resolution problem

    Hello

    I recently had a screen resolution problem with my laptop (C70 - A - 16 L).
    The max screen resolution which is imparted to me is 1366 x 768, whereas before I think he used 1600 x 900.

    I tried the latest drivers, Bios, etc. and have also restored the operating system to a previous backup, as well as a new installation.
    I also tried to roll back to Windows 7 (with proper drivers). They all offer the same problem.

    This new maximum resolution display correctly - as if the LCD does not deal with the timings of 1366 x 768.
    I believe that the Panel is OK and the problem he reports the EDID information properly - to force windows to use the new resolution.

    Is there a download monitor.inf file that can be used to bypass the EDID reported by the Panel?

    Kind regards

    Hi dduck11,

    ·         What is the default screen of the laptop resolution?

    You need to update the graphics (video) drivers for the laptop. I see that there are Windows XP drivers available for the same thing. Download and install the updated drivers to see if it helps.

  • My Windows XP has problems with shlwapi.dll

    My Windows XP has problems with shlwapi.dll and there are plenty of sites to download, but they all want money, why don't misrosoft not has an answer for this problem. When I try to update to internet explorer 6 to explore 8 then the error always pops up saying: you have a problem with shlawpi.dll and he can not continue... Very very frustrating.

    In general, it is not a good idea to download dll files.   See, for example, http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findtheproblem/qt/dll-download.htm

    If you explain more in detail what your problem is, including providing the full text of the error without paraphrase, it is likely that someone in the appropriate Microsoft Answers forum will be able to help.

    Because it seems that your problem is related to Internet Explorer, you are more likely to receive help if you post in the forum Internet Explorer, where there are already many threads dealing with issues of shlwapi.dll on IE: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/Search/Search?SearchTerm=shlwapi&CurrentScope.ForumName=ie&CurrentScope.Filter=&askingquestion=false

    If you look through some of these threads, you can find the answer to your question without further delay.  If not (or if you just want to watch), do not forget to include not only the text of the error message, but also the version of Windows XP, you have (Home, Pro, Media Center) and its service pack (start > run > winver > OK).

    And, based on this thread - with what seems to be your exact problem - also include responses to the following questions (there no answer, certainly because the OP has NOT provided to the request for information):

    1. what application or anti-virus security suite is installed and is your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?

    2. do you have a free trial Norton, or a test of free McAfee [a] come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (No matter if you have never used or activated).

  • Windows 7 installation problem Pavilion dv6-6c45eg

    Since I have a free license for windows 7 Professional at home, I decided to install it on my new Pavilion dv6-6c45eg that came with Windows 7 Home Premium.

    The problem is that the installation process stops at the beginning and said something like: "A required CD/DVD drive driver is missing... ", then he gives me the choice to load a driver. I googled a lot since yesterday and there seems to be something related to the SATA driver, however even load the SATA driver installation is not moving forward, after loading the driver it say that no new units have been detected.

    What I tried:

    * Install Windows 7 x 32 and x 64
    * Install from a USB flash drive

    * Install Windows 8 (same problem in Windows 7)

    * Check the SATA in the BIOS (not possible to see or modify on the BIOS F.19)

    * Search for the shortcomings of HD (even changed the HD)

    I'm sure it's something related to a driver, because I also installed Linux (OpenSuse, Fedora and Ubuntu) operating systems and they work fine.
    So, I would appreciate help to solve this problem.
    Thank you very much.
