Oct 24, 2006I have a dell e1705 laptop and when I close the lid the system does not go into standby or hibernation mode. I do have everything set correctly and the system will go into standby or hibernation just fine if I select one of those options manually, just not automatically when I close the lid.I have tried contacting dell, but their support is horrible and got nowhere.

Jul 11, 2010For some reason, sometimes when I start my computer, after having put it in hibernation, the screen is blank. This is as if the video card has put the monitor in standby or something. Sometimes a wake-up event, like the mouse and keyboard will fix it, but often it doesn't. In that case, I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL, then feel my way to the "restart" (and because Firefox always hangs when it quits, I have to guess when the "End Now" button comes up).

Jul 23, 2005I just reformatted my computer a Dell, Inspiron 8100, Windows XP home edition. Screen resolution default is 1600X1200 Pixels. I like 1024X768. When I change the resolution to 1024X768 or any other setting available the screen just gets smaller. There is no change in "Screen Resolution.
I have installed all the updates and SP2. Auto-updates seems to be doing fine. I downloaded new NiNida drivers from Dell, etc. I've removed and reinstalled the video drivers several times.
Optimal Screen Resolution For 17" Lcd Screen
Aug 9, 2005I just bought a gateway media center computer 835gm with fpd1760 monitor 17". It came at 1024x768 setting for moniter. What are pros and cons of changing resolution to higher one? Max available is 1280x1024.
I know one downside of increasing resolution is I'll need to change sizes of fonts and icons etc. Will higher setting slow down the computer. Do you think higher setting will be preferable since I do a lot of digital photograpy work?

Aug 19, 2005My PC is a Dell Dimension 4600, using Windows XP Home Edition. I had problems getting online, Comcast Tech came out to help, no help from them, found out myself that somewhere I had lost a driver, reinstalled, back on line, but with problems. I cannot seem to get the screen resolutions to look like I want it to. The following is what I have and it looks great, but does not fill screen and letters so small. DISPLAY PROPERTIES: Themes-Windows Classic Modified. APPEARANCE: Windows classic Style. COLOR SCHEME: Same as above.
FONT: Normal. When I click on Screen Resolution Tab it shows the following: 1280 by 1024 Pixels, Color Highest 32 bit. As I stated above, it really is so clear, (letters, etc), but does not fill screen. Also, when Tech was here he installed WindowsXP again, so now I have two of the same and the fact that they take up so much space, I had bought "The Print Shop" before all this happened and now I cannot not install.
Screen Resolution Set Too Low After SP2 Upgrade?
Apr 8, 2008I just upgraded my Dell 4300 XP Home Edition to SP2. When it rebooted, the welcome screen was in blue and white instead of its usual color rich format and the background resolution was really poor quality.A window popped up and informed me that my settings were set too low and asked whether I wanted Windows to auto correct the problem. I clicked "yes", but nothing was resolved.

Nov 4, 2005My Windows XP (SP2) screen display is set for 32 bit color. Whenever I open Outlook (Office 2003 with all updates installed), the screen blanks, then reloads with 8 bit color. If I change it to 32 bit while Outlook is open, after about 30 seconds, the same blank-reload happens. When I exit Outlook, the sequence reverses, (blank -32 bit reloads). I have tried resetting my display resolution, from every program, nothing works. Interestingly, changing from a CRT to an LCD monitor has made no difference at all.

View 9 Replies View RelatedDifference Between Screen Resolution - Dpi
Aug 10, 2005I am struggling with the best options for the LCD screen on my Dell laptop which has a NVIDIA GeForce2 Go video card.The ideal resolution setting for this video card and screen is apparently 1600 x 1200, but that makes things too small for me. So I learned about the dpi setting in Display PropertiesSettingsAdvanced screen. However since this magnifies things for the same resolution, I am not sure why that is better than just using a lower resolution or even what the difference between the 2 options is.

Oct 8, 2008The video card on this computer would just cut out from time to time, and i'd to have re-set the cable for it to work. i figured theres a loose connection, so i got another video card to replace it with, since this is a work computer.So after installing the new (actually its a used video card, ASUS v7700 TIvx, but still definitely works) video card, the computer starts up at the correct resolution, 800x600. It looks fine, but when you drag anything or scroll on a web page, the video lags. So i found the correct drivers and installed them, and rebooted.
The computer reboots in 640x480 at 4-bit color quality. when i change the resolution to 800x600 at 32-bit color quality, it just defaults back to 640x480 at 4-bit. i found that i can change the resolution to 800x600 at 4-bit, but when i try 16-bit or 32-bit quality, it just go right back to 640x480 at 4-bit.i thought maybe it was the video card, and tried to install the old one again (its a geforce 2 mx card). so i re-install it and install the correct drivers, and still the same exact thing happens, (prior to any of this, the geforce 2 mx card worked fine at 800x600 at 32-bit) i can't get it to correctly change to 800x600 at 32bit, it just keeps defaulting back to 640x480 at 4-bit.
Cannot Adjust Screen Resolution After Updating To SP2
Apr 12, 2008I updated Windows XP to Service Pack 2 yesterday. After installing and re-booting, the screen resolution and the colours of my monitor have changed (big icons and only four colours), which makes it look like it was in Safe Mode (which it isn't).I have tried to change the screen resolution and the colours under Display properties - Settings, but it only gives me the option of a screen resolution of "640x480 pixels" (the slider won't move) and colour quality of "Lowest 4 bit".I presumed it was a driver issue so I have tried to uninstall the graphics controller in the device manager and re-install it with the latest driver.

Aug 13, 2005all (after reboot it defaults back to the 4bit VGA), so I am using the xp driver(nv4_disp.dll). This works well except that there is a 1inch gap on the right of the screen that isn't being used. The resolution is 1024x768 and when i move my mouse to the right edge it scrolls the screen over. I know that part of the screen works because when it boots there is writing right up to the edge. I have tried 800x600 and it does the same thing.

View 3 Replies View RelatedScreen Resolution - Serious Virus On Computer
Nov 8, 2007First off, I purchased my computer back in 2004 preloaded with Windows XP Home. Just last week, I got a serious virus on my computer. It disabled system restore, wiped all restore points, disabled windows help, and deleted some important files. I went out and bought a new copy of Windows XP Home SP2. It installed fine at first. But, once I logged on, I realized my color setting and screen resolution were very low. A message popped up on my system tray saying something about screen resolution and color were very low. It asked to fix it. I clicked ok but nothing happened for about 2 minutes. Then, I went into display settings, and saw the settings were the lowest.But, the slider for screen resolution was set at 640 x 480. I tried to move it, but it wouldn't move. Also, the drop down list for color quality only had one option, "Lowest (4 bit)". I restarted my computer, but it was the same. I cant change it. On the old copy of Windows, the screen resolution was 1024 x 768, and the color could go up high. I forget the setting though. Also, I did not change my monitor. Does anyone know whats wrong or how to fix it?

3: for years I used Norton. When I loaded XP I used it a day or so and then loaded Norton on that PC. It slowed it down very much. So much that I took it back off. Now I need a suggestion on what virus scan will be as good as Norton but not slow my PC down so much.
User Screen Resolution Resets By Itself
Sep 16, 2005I'm running WinXP SP2 with all the latest patches recommended by Windows Update.I have logged onto this machine as Administrator. I set the screen resolution to 1024x768. It should stay there unless the user changes it, correct? Well, the user logs on and at first, the desktop looks like it's going to be 1024x768... but after the desktop icons appear and a couple of the Systray icons, the screen goes blank and resets to 1280x1024. The user can set the resolution to 1024x768... and the next time they log in, it will reset itself to 1280x1024. This ONLY happens if the user is a member of the "USERS" group; if I make them a member of the "ADMINISTRATORS" group, the resolution will stay put.I would almost think it was a group policy issue, but if it is, why does it affect no other members of the group? And how did I set such a policy?
