Display Orientation
Aug 30, 2005Somehow my clever 9-month old managed to change the display on my screenr. He managed to push some keys on the keyboard and now the screen display has rotated 90 degrees. So I have to set my monitor on its side so I can actually see what I'm doing. I can't figure out how to rotate the display back to its
original orientation.
Display Orientation Control In Pro
Nov 4, 2007Computer using XP Home suddenly had the desktop display turn 90 degrees, so it appeared on the side, pointing left. With a Google search for "desktop display orientation" This worked like a charm for his computer, I discovered that when I right click on the desktop on MY computer, using XP PRO, I can't find anything anywhere on my computer for changing the orientation, i.e., rotation options
Is this a factor of the XP version, or the monitors we are using? Also, I found a mention that the shortcut of "CTRL+ALT+ARROW" will change the orientation, but am hesitant to try it.

Display Issues- Higher Resolution Results In Signal Isnt Compatible With This Display Setting
Jun 28, 2010I have problems if I try and run the display settings above 800x600. I was wondering if this would be fixed if I upgrade the firmware settings and if so where would I get these upgrades? Whenever I try and run it at a higher display setting all I get is a thing saying "Signal isnt compatible with this display setting".

Display Issues- Graphic Distortion And Cannot Open The Display Settings
May 8, 2008The monitor started showing graphic distortion. I ordered a new monitor but had the same distortion on it. I updated the ATI drivers but it did not solve the problem. In trying to trouble shoot the problem following directions on the ATI website, I changed all the graphic settings to the lowest and slowest available. This got rid of the distortion but the settings need to go! Now I cannot open the display settings.

View 7 Replies View RelatedDisplay Issues-all The Text/font Display Settings Seem To Have Changed But Not IE
Apr 3, 2008All my text/font display settings seem to have changed. I downloaded a freeware program today called avi2dvd, to convert avi video files to iso files for burning to DVD. I tried it out, got frustrated with it, and uninstalled it. After I uninstalled it, I went to check my email. That's when I first noticed that all the text in my yahoo email account had changed - it seemed smaller, like it was at a lower resolution.
I clicked on a few more pages and it was the same for all of them - the text was just not as...smooth. Not as readable. And definitely smaller. It's not just a font size thing, I'm not that much of a newbie, I tried enlarging the font and it's definitely a resolution thing, not just a font or size issue. Then I tried out some other programs, and found out that the problem was system-wide. I use a writing program called Final Draft, and the text in that is also less readable.I found one program that hadn't been affected: IE all my web pages display fine in Explorer.
Display Settings Changed: Wont Access Features In Display Tab?
Apr 18, 2006my mom installed a virus the other day on accident. (Some program called Dr. Spy Shreddar, or something like that.) I deleted it, but some stuff was weird with the computer. I tried restarting the system to get the old configuration back, but the virus just installed itself again. I removed it again, using instructions from Systematic Antivirus and now it's really gone. Some of the settings were still weird though. So after hours of searching the help topics on Microsoft I managed to fix 1 & 1/2 of the problems I had/have.
For one of the problems they made me go into the registry and set something to the value of 0 in order to get the desktop tab back in the Display Properties box. (You know when you right click on the desktop and select properties.) That's all fine and dandy, but here's the other 1/2 of my problem: I can't access some of the features in the tab. (I have Windows XP Professional, by the way.) I can't click inside of the background list and it's shaded a sort of brownish beige color. I also can't browse and do anything with the position setting. I can however access the customize desktop and color features
Display Issues- The Display Area Has Been Reduced By 40 Percent
Aug 5, 2008I was installing security cables for the computer stations. when I finished and rebooted the computers(had to disconnect power and other cords to run the security cables) one of them had a display problem.
it seems that the display area has been reduced. the functional area of the screen is maybe 60% of what it should be. in this area it is complete with the full desktop able to be accessed and nothing is missing. but the right 20% of the screen is solid black (cursor stops at the boundary) and the bottom 20% of the screen(that's not black) is displaying a second image of the top 20% of my desktop. (cursor also stops at this boundary.)
Display Issues- Have To Change Display Properties At Every Startup
Dec 7, 2007I reinstalled XP Pro with SP1 on my computer today. Everything is working well except when my desktop loads the actual display is about an inch to the right on the screen. If I go into properties and change/apply the screen resolution from 800 x 600 then back to 1024 x 768 it realigns and all is well. I would just prefer to not have to do that each time I restart windows.

Now it is happening all the time which can be help somewhat by refresh, changing the desktop picture, and/or logging off then on I have tried, disabling the 128MB DDR ATI Radeon 9800 Pro using device manager. At first it was OK but at low resolution (VGA I think), but when it asked if I wanted to let windows manage the graphics it got garbled again. I have reset resolutions down to 800 x 600 using the graphics card but that doesn't help.

May 8, 2005I have an older IBM 10in screen thinkpad running Win2000. Turned it on for the first time in a while the other day and the windows sign on screen is off the right and it is like I am on dual monitor. Can slide pointer to right and get to one side with startup menu then slide pointer back to left for icons. When put a screen saver on in tile mode, it duplicates it side by side but you have to scroll left to see both. Have gone into display and tried to change things but nothing works. When I go to settings, it shows only one monitor but says display [Multiple monitors} on silicon Motion LynxEM+.

Problem With Customizing The Display
Dec 24, 2008My Laptop has a problem with my xp desktop.I am unable to customize the display, all the icons now default to the left side of the screen. No matter what I do to control this, I can set out the icons in the positions I have historically had them and they will stay until I attempt to open a File or connect to a website then everything flies back to the left side. I have checked and rechecked all the settings and also compared them to my other computer but still I cannot control this problem.
