Resolution Problem

[Guest Viirus]

my monitor can display up to 1152 by 864 x 8 but Continuum won't display this resolution for most of the time. Sometime it does display this resolution but when i restart my computer, it goes back to the default resolution of 1024 by 768 x 8.

 

Has anyone encountered this same problem before?

 

Please help in anyway you can but don't give me -*BAD WORD*- answer such as, "go buy a new computer" etc...

 

also

 

My zone does not limit resolution.

 

Here is my computer specs:

digiview monitor

Intel Celeron 667mhz

intel® 82810E

192MB

15GB HD

 

 

I Thank you in advance

make sure none of your profiles specify different resolutions

 

just changing profiles may be changing your resolution choices, if so

[Guest viirus]

i'll try puting all my profile into 1152 resolution.

try to update your graphics card drivers, ensure you have the latest vertion of direct x installed and try again.

 

If this does not help please post again.

[Guest viirus]

updated, still won't work

 

duno what wrong with continuum, or it my computer.

some zones have a set res. the higher your res the more distorted the map will look.

[Dav]

try to set your desktop to 1152 by 864 then try with continuum.

[Guest viirus]

i do have my monitor at 1152 res. it just that contiuum won't give me this resolution.

 

my zone does not have a resolution limit.

I use a 2400x2240 Resolution and Have a NEC Multisync 95 Monitor (19") and I see you before I even hit your radar

viirus, you should really check if your monitor CAN display that resolution. The resolution gets set back because either your monitor doesn't support the resolution or you have selected the wrong type of monitor.

 

For the last; Right click on your desktop and click on 'Properties'. Click on the 'Settings' tab and then check what kind of display / monitor it says it has. Check this name with the exact name that is located somewhere on your monitor - especially serial number and such.

If this doesn't match (or you have 'Plug and Play Monitor'), go to the site of the manufacturer of your monitor and get the good drivers for your monitor.

 

Let me know the outcome

I have seen the appear-and-dissappear problem a few times in the past as well but I have no idea what causes it but I am fairly certain that the drivers are to blame. Try reinstalling them and uninstalling them and newer drivers and older drivers.
