Hi all
I recently broke my VGA port on the motherboard, so i had to get a VGA via graphics slot, Since I have done this i am not able to change the resolution.
I have also gone into advanced settings, list all modes, when I do this it does change but it's weird and discoloured.
I have also updated drivers via device manager but it tells me I have the most up to date version, Please help me i need to change this
tolska you haven't mentioned your PC's BIOS--you first need to restart into the BIOS and find the setting to use Onboard Video (and turn that off).
OK maybe you've done that--then the only other thing I can think is the driver you picked for your graphics card is somehow wrong.
Hi, Welcome to forums.
First thing I would suggest to you is to fill in your system specs. Tell us what video card are you using. If it is NVIDIA or AMD, you have to download the drivers from their site, rather than Windows.
It will be really helpful, if you can fill in your specs first.
Hi sorry for the delay,
I have a HP COMPAQ, Windows 7 Pro, 2GB Ram, Intel Processor,
Graphics card is made by Trident which they have gone bust, So i will need to buy a new one i think,
maxseven I tried your and it messed my PC up even worse, Took me a while to reset the bios, since when i turned it off, Boom I could not see nothing at all, It was not picking up screen so i had t put it bak

Thanks for the screenshots. Just makes everything a bit clearer for everyone.
I installed the drivers you gave, but it's still not made a difference, After reboot nothing has changed,
Any other suggestions please
Hi Tolska.
You applied the Trident VGA adapter after breaking the VGA port?
Upload your MSINFO32.nfo file, as it will help us to understand the situation better.
