| | Display settings I have read through this thread and have seen my question touched on but not answered, so here it goes. I cannot change my display setting off of 800 by 600. I have a IBM think Center, 2.4ghz, 1 gig of ram, LCD monitor, NVIDIA Gforce 5200 with 256 ram ( Microsoft Coropration-WDDM beside my graphics card under device manager),with Windows Vista (Beta 2) was done on a clean intasll. I have gone into display settings numerous time to change this to no avail. I also have gone into display settings (advanced settings under list all modes) to no avail. Am I doing something wrong? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance. |

| | RE: Display settings I did also have that problem. I have a normal monitor and a tv conected to my graphics card. I had to enable the tv-out and extend the desktop to the tv, before I could set the display setting I wanted for my monitor. If I restart the display is back to 800X600, and I have to again extend the desktop.

| | RE: Display settings I think I found a work around to this proble. Everytime I start Windows Vista, It reverts to 800 by 600 resolution then I have to fiddle around to try yo get it back to the rsolution I want then restart & choose start windows with the last known good configuration, Windows Vista boots up into the resolution I want. I know it doesn't fix the problem but atleast it's a work around till the issue is addressed. Billy I found out that if I shut windows down with the correct resolution that I want "Billy" wrote: > I have read through this thread and have seen my question touched on but not > answered, so here it goes. > > I cannot change my display setting off of 800 by 600. > > I have a IBM think Center, 2.4ghz, 1 gig of ram, LCD monitor, NVIDIA Gforce > 5200 with 256 ram ( Microsoft Coropration-WDDM beside my graphics card under > device manager),with Windows Vista (Beta 2) was done on a clean intasll. > > I have gone into display settings numerous time to change this to no avail. > I also have gone into display settings (advanced settings under list all > modes) to no avail. > > Am I doing something wrong? > > Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!
