Screen resolution help!

[Guest Dennis]

Hi,

 

How can I set my resolution besides from 1280x768 and 800x600? Lately I

have, I think, 5 resolution options, but now, there are only 2 options left.

 

Thanks!

Install the correct video driver for your adapter, get it from the

manufacturers web site.

Is there any options? I was thinking someone has used my pc, changed its

screen resolution and ticked some other properties.

Sounds like you need to reinstall your video driver. What is listed as the

"Display" on your settings tab? It is usually of the form "Your monitor

make/model" on "Your video card make/model". For instance, mine says "Dell

1508FP on RADEON X300 Series" If your video card is listed as "VGA adapter"

or something similar, you need to reinstall your driver.

XP won't normally show invalid screen resolutions, if you or someone

"updated" the video drivers with Windows Update, then a generic driver

could be installed.

Did you played some games lately?

Games can change screen resolutions, also try to get the latest driver for

your Graphics card or rollback the driver.

Note: you can get info about your G card from Device Manager.

Bad connection or bent pin on VGA plug? Three of the pins tell the card what

inputs the display can accept.
