759562 2009-03-26 07:10:00 ah, this is windows way of telling you it cant tell what monitor you have installed. somehow windows either dropped the ball on the screen driver or the monitor isnt quite fully plugged in. usually the default sets to 800x600 but that might be XP williamF (115)
759563 2009-03-26 07:20:00 Try unpluging it from the computer and the power, then unplug your computer from the power.

759564 2009-03-26 07:25:00 I uninstalled the all the drivers for the device (toke several restarts to do so)
and bam everything worked, could detect my screen and use it at the right RES. So restarted and all was good until windows automatically started installing device drivers and im back where i started.

I guess i will have to find out where to stop windows automatically installing drivers, but then without any drivers will programs run properly, and 2nd with no drivers the GPU fan goes 100% which is really loud.

759566 2009-03-26 09:04:00 Nop, unless that's part of automatic updates? pantera989 (14533)
759567 2009-03-26 10:12:00 Nop, unless that's part of automatic updates?

Nope, I was just wondering cos it screwed up my monitor settings today evening.
