I am using windows 7 professorial for my clients . Usually this PCs are connected to Tv Screen that play some media contents .this media needs to be run under 1920x1080 resolution .sometime we my customer turn off the TV , or unplug the cable it reset the resolution to default like 1280x720 Is there any way to "lock" the screen resolution at 1920 x 1080 and not leave this up to Windows?
i have just purchased an LG W2261Vits native resolution is 1920 x 1080when i connect my win 7 machine - using my vga cable on my toshiba satelite u300, using Mobile Inte965 Express Chipset i cannot get it to use 1920 x 1080the max resolution is 1680 x 1050list all modes does not show 1920 x 1080
I have a 42 inch Sharp LCD TV, and a Lenovo T500 laptop running windows 7 as my main OS. I use VGA to connect to my TV. Any attempt to display 1920 by 1080 on my TV results in my TV telling me to switch to 1600 by 1200 because the video mode is not supported. 1920 by 1080 works fine on windows XP, same machine, same TV.
Games would not run well at 1920 by 1080, so I've ignored it up till now (because I tried several times and cannot get it to work). I like 1920 by 1080 for writing code though. Any way to fix this?
video card:
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650
Switchable graphics is currently disabled.
Windows 7 version: release candidate (it's free) (32 bit, yay for unused RAM)
I want to adjust my screen resolution to 1680 x 1080 (recommended for 17" Laptop). But the only option available is 1366 x 780. How do I get additional options?
I was recently poking about in the Group Policy Editor seeing if there were any changes between Vista and 7, but after I had exited and locked my computer I noticed my lock screen now shows as this:
(I had to use my phone as it seems you cannot use print screen at this login)
Normally it would have the persons picture and name, and all you would have to do is enter the password, but it seems it has made it so you have to enter the Username and Password which is quite an annoyance.
I went through all of the settings to make sure that I had not accidentally changed any, from what I saw I had not changed any settings or if there were in fact any settings that causes this behaviour.
i'm having some trouble with my screen resolution . i set it at (800x600) cause i'm using a 51 inch big screen hd tv. it go's full screen but then for no reason it puts the bars back on the sides of the screen. i checked and it still reads (800x600) and i can't get it to change back to full screen until i reboot. works fine in vista . i'm not seeing anything about drivers failing so i'm not sure what's happening.
I've just upgraded from XP to Win 7 and its driving me mad! Evertime I leave my PC for a few minutes I come back and the screen is on some sort of neutral screensaver...and I have to renter my password to get back into Windows. I've gone into power management and selected 'high power' option, selected 'never' for sleep, hibernate and so forth..but still this infernal screen saver thing comes on dozens of times a day.
Does anyone use there 1080p HDTV as a monitor? If so do you think that the font's, icon's and the rest of the display make things apear to small although you have more room on screen etc?.
i used windows xp for a long time, if i know the name of a file i know how to find it easily with search... I was also able to search for file dimensions.How do I find the 1920 x 1200 image in Windows 7?
for the past month i have had an issue where before the log in screen would show, it would be a blank screen with a cursor, that i could move. (It worked normal in safe mode) I normally would just ignore this problem and it seemed to go back to normal after a little while. Well yesterday it didn't go away, so i went online looking for a solution, in safe mode. I've read to disable/enable drivers, re-install drivers, just plenty of things. And the result of all this is that my screen resolution wont go back to normal, and there is a black border around my screen, around a half inch. Also, my computer has been running EXTREME slow lately.
We just got a new computer that included Windows 7 software. My simple question is this. When we walk away from the computer for awhile and return to do something, the screen locks up and asks for a password which I recorded when we first set up the computer. I don't want to have to type in a password each time someone wants to use the computer since this is our family, home use computer. How do I turn off this option?
Got new ASUS N53JQ laptop, running Windows7, and can't get the taskbar to lock. I put the cursor "under" screen at bottom, right click to show taskbar, then click on "Lock the taskbar". A tick appears against it, but when I then click on the main screen, the taskbar disappears again.
my office has a terminal server and every time I launch it with dual monitors the terminal server windows do not lock at the maximum size. I can move the entire terminal server window up and down and side to side just by moving the mouse...it is irritating and not allowing me to use the computer efficiently.
If I use 1 monitor, the screen locks. The other guys in the office with Windows XP do not have this problem either.
For some reason my screen goes into the "enter admin password" mode when left idle.How can I make that stop? I get the reason for it, say if you worked in an office and don't want anyone to use your computer when your away, but this is a home computer.
I am running windows 7 home premium and am trying to install Corel draw x4, but it will install to 65% and a dialog will pop up stating...error 1920. Service Protexis Licening v2 failed to start verify that I have sufficient privileges to start the service. Additionally when I go to services I don't even see the protexis service, nor do I see it anywhere on my computer. I am the only person who uses this laptop I have no other account, I sometimes feel this isn't my computer ,because I get these dialogs alot. I even tried to go to C and properties to change the owner/security settings. How to gain ownership of the computer.
I'll be in a game, and press caps. The window will minimize. This has never happened before. Also, when I click my cursor into a bar to type, then press caps, the blinking cursor thing goes away, and I must re click into the bar to continue typing.
today a little problem cropped up as i tried to watch a Internet video. as soon as i go to open it i got a sound loop crash (sounded like buzzing) and when i went to login it would crash on the windows 7 'jingle' at the login screen. this started happening the restart after i did a windows update, specifically kb982018, kb2532531, kb2529073, kb2675157 and kb2505438. i also used a tcp optimizer and ran this batch file to further optimize my internet connection beforehand:

A flashing lock/unlock icon (padlock which alternates form locked to unlocked) shows in the middle of my screen. The machine was built a few years back and hasn't changed significantly since then The symptom has just begun today) and only impacts Windows. The Linux install on this machine is unaffected I'm running Windows 7, with Office 7, both activated successfully (also running Open Office and Libre Office which were upgraded last week). I recently changed video card, about 3 weeks back suspect this is related to some sort of Microsoft security issue can't find any references on the web. Cant generate a screen shot (which suggests this is being inflicted by Windows itself) even with bitmap capture e.g., snippy the icon is a very basic black and white padlock shape that stays right in the middle of the screen, is partly transparent and is visible no matter what programs are running - full screen games or windows applications.
I guess I may have accidentally disabled some drivers or something, but I have been doing everything I could to get it back, but I failed.1. I tried restoring it using ATKpackage .. repaired + complete reinstall. ( my laptop is an Asus )2. Tried entering keyboard settings, but couldn't find a related option.3. Tried editing the registry -->HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Widcomm > BTConfig > General > KeyIndicationBut mine is already at "1", not "0" .
