Okay, I need a little computer help!
I had my computer taken in last week to be fixed after it just shut off one day. So, I got it back and when I turned it on, it looked like it was on 'Safe Mode.' But it didnt notify me that it was, so I just right clicked on my desktop went to Properties>Settings and it looks like my computer's Screen Resolution and Color Quality got reset while my computer was being fixed. I cannot figure out what it was on before. What is the Screen Resolution and Color Quality normally??? My screen was huge and now its all small.. so ya. Thanks. |

There is no way possible for me to know what you had before. The only thing I can tell you is to try it out yourself and see what happens. The worst that could happen is that you can't figure out what you had before and you can change it back to its original (undesired) state.

What I would do is set the resolution to "high" & color quality to "highest." It's like that on the laptop I'm using right now & my PC. I've never changed them so that's probably what yours was set to. If that wasn't how it was before, just mess around with the settings.

QUOTE(dosomethin888 @ Dec 13 2008, 09:34 PM)  Well, what is yours at? You know I could tell you, but it could be totally different from what you initially had, and it's all up to your own preference. There is no "right" resolution nor colour quality. For reference though I'm at the highest possible value for both of em. Either way just try it out until you find one that you like. We can't read your mind... |

Go to:
PROPERTIES SETTINGS, from there go to SCREEN Resolution and set it to MORE, ALL THE WAY! Its BETTER!.. Next, go to Color Quality and set it to Highest.. You will see the Difference.. |
