Desktop resolution automatically resets when using projectors and LCD monitors w/ XP. How can I stop it?

I enjoy been replacing CRTs near LCDs, but the resolution keeps resetting itself to the max (1280x1024). I can modification it back to what I want, but it will stir back again. Now I hold projectors doing the same article. There must be a way to force XP to keep hold of a particular resolution contained by opposition to the manufacturer's recommended settings. Has anyone else see this? Have you found a fix for it?


Answer:

This normally happen when the drivers for your video card are not the correct ones.

Have a look at them and make sure they are the correct ones for your graphics card.

If they are not, move about to the manufacturers site and seize the right ones and install

them.



I went to start \ settings \ Control panel \ Display \ Settings \ Advanced \ Adapter

.... and hit the alteration button. From memory, I got a dialog box that asked me if

i needed the system to search for the most modern driver or if I wanted to specify one

myself. I chose the first way out, after making sure that I had the "Product salvage

and diagnostics CD Rom" which come with the computer, surrounded by the drive.

The system chugged and whirred and said it be finished and would have to restart

and when it did - you allure! - it was spinal column on Hi-color 1800x600! What I think happen

was that when it go into "Safe Mode" I remember it saying that it individual loaded the

minimum of drivers, so when I restarted from there I have lost my video driver.

If this doesn't solve your problem at least you can cross this stale your list of possible

fault.
