Display, Screen resolution & Aero effects problems on CAIRA CR3181

Hello. I have a CAIRA CR3181 laptop and I recently changed from WinVista to 7. I have a problem with Aero effects, I can't change colors or customize my theme at all. Also, something seems to be wrong with the screen resolution since all the items seem stretched and inappropriately sized. I have tried changing the screen resolution from display settings but there are only two options and both resolutions look really bad. Is it a problem with my graphics drive? If not, is there any way I can make items smaller and more appropriately sized on my screen? Thank you in advance.

Welcome to the Seven Forums
It sounds like a graphic driver problem to me.
After you switched to Windows 7 did you install your graphic drivers?
I tried looking up your computer and I don't find anything under the name of "CAIRA CR3181 laptop".

Well the laptop installed lots of Windows updates by itself. I didn't install graphic drivers, How do I do that?

you may want to look at this thread jjai. and bongo is most likely right.

Windows Aero theme trouble

Thanks. Aero is fixed for now but the items on the screen are still so stretched and big by the way the display settings were okay at first but the laptop crashed and I had to work with safe mood for a while. After restarting on normal mode the display settings changed on their own and I can't change them back, since all the options in control panel are so limited.

I installed the drivers and now it works great. Thank you! You've been of great help
