Question

I'M PISSED! I turned on my computer today and the screen resolution is on 800x600 and so i thought maybe it just got reset.So i tryed changing it and it wont go to the graphics card set resolution for best display.So i tryed to go to a lower ones and those wont work so im cant get over 800x600.

WTF im gettin angry ready to take apart my computer and just stick some fireworks in it!so please help me before i do.

Also, go to control panel

system

ensure your graphic card driver only is active.

if both are active, right click on motherboard video driver,

click disable.

Restart computer.

If problem still persists, go to graphic card manufacturer's site,& download updated driver.

PS;

Remove your graphic card .

run your computer without graphic card, through normal monitor port.

enable/instal original video drivers of motherboard.

This  will give an idea, whether  graphic card is not defective.

YOU CAN RE-INSTAL GRAPHIC CARD AGAIN LATTER.

Ensure two video drivers of motherboard & graphic card are not active simoutaneously.

While in graphic card mode, ensure monitor is connected to graphic card video out port.
