I have a problem. My laptop (a Compaq Netbook) for some reason will not go up to 1024 by 768 for some reason. Can you help me with this problem at all.

@godofcrap42 With Windows, anytime you cannot get the resolution that a monitor was designed for it is typically because the correct driver is not installed for the video card.

hi, have a question? My Screen Resolution is Pink can't take out the red out .. tried everything .what can i do to restore it back to it natural color?

@yolanda1161 You may have a bad connection or loose pin in a cable, could have bad video card or could have bad monitor.

Check connections, then swap out monitor if possible and try on another PC. If the problem goes with the monitor then the monitor is bad. If the problem stays with the PC then it's the video card.

@Lamborghini210490 That's more an issue with your screen capture software and that capabilities that it does or does not have.

Hey...

My moniter resolution was changed. After that my moniter is showing an error "input signal out of Range change settings to 1024x768-60Hz".

How do I change it back to default? There is only a black screen on moniter so I can't get to the desktop to click properties to change the resolution back to the suggested setting.

Operating system : XP

Please help...

Thanks

@Wackey2k9 If you have the right driver installed, you should be able to choose whatever resolution is supported by your monitor. If the game requires the resolution to be NO MORE THAN 800x600x32, then you will have to set the resolution down to that to play the game - but no RECENT games would require you to do that, only very old ones.

@FreeCompConsultant i downloaded sanandreas game, when i attempt to open it, it says you need 800x600x32, i'm well aware what this means? what do i do in that case...
