We recently wiped everything out, and then reinstalled everything on our computer. Everything is up and running perfectly, except for one thing. When I go to display properties, then go to settings, I try to change my screen resolution, and I cannot. The slider bar will not move! I have tried everything I can think of, and nothing is working, so any help with this issue is greatly apprectiated! |

As Will Denny's reply mentioned, this has to do with Windows not having the correct driver for your video card - it's using something generic. Go to the hardware manufacturer's website and download the correct driver there, and then install it in Device Manager. Oh, and don't get driver updates from Windows Update, ever.. :-) |
