Screen resolution W10


Sportsman

Recommended Posts

The settings on both my screens should be 1680X1050. This is what they were on W7.

Since installing W10 one has changed and I am having a problem changing it back

I go to Settings-display-advanced display-resolution but 1680X1050 is not given as an option.

Is there a way of setting it manually?

 

If it helps, both the screens are VGA input

my Vid card is AMD Radeon with one DVI and one VGA output so the screen that I can't get right has a DVI to VGA converter from the DVI socket

 

Thanks

You may not have the exact display card dealt with in this link but I think that you may need to look at changing your video driver to and older version. Some good suggestions here from others who have had various problems and if you can find your exact card version, you could do some further searching on the AMD community.

Hi Newt

I downloaded the latest driver for the vid card and it reset the screen resolution automatically as part of the process, so, problem solved.

I think that my next purchase is likely to be an upgraded N Vidia card.

nvidia are winning the GPU card race hands down right now; they are fist off the bat with new drivers and software.

Regardless of how good some AMD cards are (they do clock very well and can beat Nvidia in tests etc) thhe support from AMD software and development just isnt there.

AMD seem to have stopped giving a crap about the card market and have taken the lazy root of pulling in cash from their chipsets in consoles instead.

Id suggest anyone looking for a gpu went nvidia just because youre far more likely to get good drivers and software and encounter far fewer compatibility issues along the way!
