Hi guys! Awesome forum. Glad I found it. For the past few days I've been doing non-stop downloading, installing, un-installing, downloading, searching, reading, and I seriously have come to a dead end.
I wanted to install a new nvidia graphic card because mine seems to have stopped working or something? All I know is the images I see aren't as flawless as they once were. Shades that I wouldn't normally see, I do see. Like if you opened a picture in Paint and saved it in GIF. something like that. But that's not really my biggest issue.
My main problem is my screen in Windows XP was 1600x1200. But then I installed windows 7 and now the biggest I can get too is 1400x1250 which is great. But my screen looks squished. Not so much so that I can't do anything with it. But my pictures look strange. I can't stand it. I need a bigger resolution.
The option to go to 1600x1200 is there. But when I click it, my screen goes hay wire and I have to wait for it to revert back to what it was, before I can do anything. So I really need to know what to do.
I have a Generic PnP Monitor on Standard VGA Graphics Adapter.
I've done a lot of properties clicking and they all the same thing. That nothing needs to be updated. I really just want to fix this resolution. I can get over the low quality colors.
If you guys want to see some screen shots, let me know. Please help me.
