Resolution issue. 1600x1200 my monitor turns off. didnt in windowsxp
Hello, i have got windows7 running fine id say which i am pleased with but there is just 1 little or abit of an annoying thing that is. I cannot get my resolution to 1600 1200 resolution. This was possible when i had windows Xp running. My GPU has uptodate drivers and my motherboard i believe is ok thou I have found this ASUS motherboard a little messy to get things uptodate. i think my motherboards fine thou.
I am abit sad that i can only go to 1280 1024. As i want to play some games in 1600 1200 resolution. I have a CRT monitor by the way but anyway.
I shall keep an eye on this post of mine to see if any1 is able to give me some useful advice/ solution. Thank you for reading this thread and would be most grateful to whoever might come up with a solution to this. I find this issue rather weird and a shame really.
Everything fine apart from going into 1600 resolution. thats 1600 by any number. it cannot go into anything that starts with 1600 but in xp when i used this recently it was ok. My monitor would just switch off and have that orange light on it like its in stand by. Lucky i know that if i press the escape key it'll go back.
Yours sincerily,
RichSz
