When I go to some forum the banner/header and navigation get messed up and someone suggested it could be a screen resolution problem and I was wondering what resolution should my resolution be set to? Currently it is set to 1024 X 768.

Hi cgrim29588.
It is possible for your monitor resolution to affect how a web site appears when you view it.
What monitor are you currently using? (Make,model,size)
Computer Manufacturer/Model Number Samsung R60 Plus OS Operating System Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Build 7600 CPU Mobile DualCore Intel Core 2 Duo T5550, 1833 MHz (1 Motherboard ATI Radeon Xpress 1100/1250 Memory 2GB (DDR2-667 DDR2 SDRAM) Graphics Card(s) ATI Radeon Xpress 1200 Series (256 MB) Sound Card Realtek ALC262 @ ATI SB600 - High Definition Monitor(s) Displays Samsung LTN154X3-L01 [15.4" LCD] Screen Resolution 1280x800 PSU na Case na Cooling na Keyboard na
Yes it is possible it is affecting web pages I view.
I don't know the size or model all I know is it is made by Compaq
Here is a picture of my monitor:

Thanks cgrim29588.
If you right click anywhere on your desktop you will be presented with a few options, one of which is "Screen resolution". This will give you the ability to adjust your resolution from "high" to "low" and a few settings in between.
Try the different settings until you find one which presents the pages you are trying to view in the best possible way.
Hope this helps.

cgrim29588, type in "device manager" in the search box after clicking on your "Start" button.
Click on "Display Adapters" and then right click on the adapter that appears. Choose "Update Driver Software". Windows will then search for the latest driver available for your display adapter.
