I installed Windows 7 Ultimate from a CD on my Vaio laptop. product number: SVS13A190X. I used to have up to 1920 x 1280 resolution but now I only have up to 1600 x 900. I have a NVIDIA® GeForce™ GT 640M LE 2GB Dedicated Graphic Card. Is there any way to get my old maximum resolution back?

Thanks

Hi,

I would try updating the graphics card drivers by downloading the latest ones, if that fails I would also try an older version of the drivers just in case they have changed something since :-)

It doesn't have any problems, it installs, says it's finished & asks to restart.

Did you install from Sony website, or NVidia. Whichever you didn't install from, use that one instead.
