Accidental​ly set my screen resolution too high

I was playing around with screen resolutions and accidentally set one too high and now every time i load up my Computer, it says 'Input not supported' , please help me.

It would help greatly if you:
A) Identified the installed operating system
B) Identified your HP desktop PC. (look on the service tag. Post the complete  p/n
If your OS is Windows 7, start the operating system in Safe Mode. Press the power button and before Windows begins to boot, start tapping the F8 key. Choose Safe Mode.  In Safe Mode click on the start button and type  msconfig in the search all programs and files box . Click on the msconfig icon that appears above to invoke msconfig. In the msconfig dialog choose the Boot tab as in the following image. In Boot options put a tick inside the box to the left of base video, then click on apply and OK. Restart your PC and  right-click an unused area on the desktop and set your resolution. Choose the recommended resolution.  After you do that, go back to the msconfig and remove the tick mark in the Boot options -->Base video, click on OK and restart your PC. All should be back to normal again.
The desktop I am using has a dual display setup, so yours will appear a bit differently. the operatng system will recommend an optimal resolution and designate it as recommended.

  • Screen resolution too high - text is tiny - how to change?

    I'm a newbie to Audition, and spent 2.5 hours this weekend editing a 6.5 minute talk. Ended up with a massive headache, largely because of the small size of the text in the screen menues, etc.
    Anyone know how to change these? I Use a MS Surface 3 pro with very high resolution (21160*1440)  with a 22" screen set at 1680 *1050 (max for the screen) .
    Any help would be greatly appreciated...

    You don't mention which version of Audition you are using, but support for High DPI displays was added to Audition and other Adobe applications last year.  This adds support for icon and text scaling, which is configured at the OS level.  Found a good overview and write-up about this at How to Make the Windows Desktop Work Well on High-DPI Displays and Fix Blurry Fonts but the quick-and-dirty method is to right-click on your Windows desktop and choose Screen Resolution then click on the item Make text and other items larger or smaller.  There, you can select scaling at 125% and 150%.  You'll probably need to log back into your Windows account for the change to take effect.

  • What should I set me screen resolution to in photoshop CC with my late 2009 27" iMac?

    What should I set me screen resolution to in photoshop CC with my late 2009 27" iMac?

    If its native resolution is 2560x1440 then some people do find it marginal with a 27 inch screen, but I'd have thought it workable if you know where everything is.  People are using that screen res on tiny laptops, but to be fair, they are not much liking it with Photoshop.
    I don't know how Retina support works with CC, but I wonder if you could force it on your iMac?
    Any Mac users out there know how Retina support works?

  • Screen brightness too high

    Hello, I have had my first blackberry for a few days now, and I'm in trouble with the screen brightness. I have sensitives eyes ad even at the lowest settings, the brightness is hurtful in dark rooms. It does not seem to be a bug nor a material issue specific to my phone, as most new phones and computers are also too bright. Therefore my question is is there a possibility to lower the screen brightness under the OS preset limit ?I am a developper so even a programmatical solution would be nice.  I have only seen outdated posts about this issue on the Internet, with no solution, maybe the problem could be solved in 10.3.2 or in the next versions ? Thanks a lot

    Okay thanks, it is posted there : http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Native-Development/Screen-brightness-too-high/td-p/3122861. I also thought about always putting a semi-opaque frame on the foreground, as the android ight filter apps usually do.

  • Screen Resolution to high..

    Hi,
    after installing iOS4 my screen resolution is too high. How to reset to see all of the screen again ?

    Same problem here. I have an iPhone 3GS, but iOS4 seems to recognise the screen as having a 4G resolution. Thus I can only see 1/4 of the screen and it won't scroll.
    Tried a reset, but it isn't fixing it.

    This can be done with a line that looks something like this:
    Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    Make sure the highest resolution is the one your monitor supports.
    Edit: that line goes below the "Depth" entries in the "Screen" section (usually near the bottom) of xorg.conf.

  • How to set Dynamic screen resolution in flex..?

    Hi All.,
    I am developing a flex application in adobe flex4. to set the application height is 100% width is 100% and using <flexmdi:MDICanvas> to set the height 780 ,so application get displayed on normal window correctly., But i try to press f11 key the screen size is expanded at the time application size is set exactly, MdiCanvass size is  not expanding on screen resolution.
    My question is how can I make sure that the application should look uniform across different platform/different browsers and different monitors to display screen resolution auto adjust in mdi canvass also.
    With Regards.,

    Hi,
    Use the below syntax...
    CALL TRANSACTION tcode... OPTIONS FROM opt
    ... OPTIONS FROM opt
    Effect
    Allows you to control processing using the values of the componetns of the structure opt, which must have the ABAP Dictionary type CTU_PARAMS. The components have the following meanings:
    DISMODE
    Display mode (like the MODE addition)
    UPDMODE
    Update mode (like the UPDATE addition)
    CATTMODE
    CATT mode (controls a CATT)
    CATT mode can have the following values:
    ' ' No CATT active
    'N' CATT without single-screen control
    'A' CATT with single-screen control
    DEFSIZE
    Use default window size
    RACOMMIT
    Do not end transaction at COMMIT WORK
    NOBINPT
    No batch input mode (that is, SY-BINPT = SPACE)
    NOBIEND
    No batch input mode after the end of BDC data.
    The components DEFSIZE , RACOMMIT, NOBINPT, and NOBIEND always take the following values:
    'X' Yes
    ' ' No
    If you do not use the OPTIONS FROM addition, the following control parameter settings apply:
    DISMODE
    From addition MODE
    UPDMODE
    From addition UPDATE
    CATTMODE
    No CATT active
    DEFSIZE
    Do not use default window size
    RACOMMIT
    Successful end on COMMIT WORK
    NOBINPT
    Batch input mode active ( SY-BINPT = X
    NOBIEND
    Batch input mode remains active after the BDC data

  • Where can I set the screen resolution

    I am trying to use do a course online and they said that the screen resolution needs to be set at 1024 x 768. Where do I do this?

    You can paste this in the Code field in the Firefox > Web Development (or Tools) > Error Console and click the Evaluate button and enter 1024x768 on the prompt.

  • Resolution too high for me

    All of the current Mac Book Pros and Mac Books have a native screen resolution that makes it difficult for me to read without getting a head ache. I do not believe that I have special needs and I am not a senior (in my fourties). However I still prefer my old 1.67 GHz 15 PB with the 1280x854 resolution. In fact I was lucky to get one of these old ones. I really wanted to get an Intel book when they came out but I could not deal with that resolution. I actually had to return it. Reducing the resolution does not work either since only the native screen resolution looks sharp and crisp. I just came back from the Apple store since I really want to get a Mac Book Pro now. I thought that maybe the 17 inch would be better for me. Unfortunately its the same problem. Reading the menu items alone gave me a head ache. These computers seem to be made for teenagers. So is there a solution for me such as a new graphic card or a replacement screen that would make it easier for "seniors" like myself to use the computer?
    15 inch PB   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   1.5 GB

    too me it is perfect, any higher would be really really pushing it.
    the resolution is great for production type work, animation, photography, film, design, illustration, etc. but maybe not the best for business type work.
    I am 20 and have become very adapted to reading tiny text, just in general i think, not just on computer screens but with everything.
    1680x1050 on a 17" when Apple uses 1680x1050 on their 20" monitors, but that is just how it works, Apple is not manufacturing these displays so they have to stick to the standard sizes available.
    Are you mostly at a desk with your laptop? or more taking it with you on your lap?
    I am kind of suprized however, that their isn't a way to increase text size of the Mac UI, maybe their is??
    if "Resolution Independence" turns out to work like it should, that will be a nice feature, and it should indeed solve your problem, if the whole UI is scalable like the icons, etc. are now.

  • Setting default screen quality to "High"

    Captivate v5.5
    I am recording some screen shots from our corp. website to slides created in Captivate v5.5. I have set all the slides in Captivate with screen quality "High" yet all the slides I import after recording have screen quality "low".
    I know I can change them but wonder is there a way to set the fault screen quality to "high" so all new slides added are "high" quality - or whatever I want them to be rather than having to keep changing them.
    Noel

    Thank you Anjaneai and Lilybiri,
    So the way it works at the moment is this. When you create a project each slide you add will always be set to "low" quality and there is no way to change this in preferences or global settings.
    When you preview you work it will be based on "low" quality slides unless you change them one by one as you import them.
    Once you have finished the creation of your project and publish it, provided you have made the required changes in Project Settings - all slides that were "low" will be changed to the required quality setting as per the project settings in preferences.
    When you open the project again - to edit it for example, I assume the slide quality is still "low".
    I agree with you Lilybiri - Slide Quality should be an option in Preferences and the default settings should be "Optimised".
    Thanks again both.

  • I foolishly set my screen resolution to what my computer recommended, now I get Input beyond range

    As I said in the intro, when i switched on this morning the pc suggested I reset my screen resolution to 2560x1600 which i did and now i cannot access even the login screen.
    All help seems to point towards safe-mode but i cannot even get to that.
    Any ideas? or should I throw away windows 8 and buy a mac instead?

    Well no help, no support, nobody seems able to solve this.
    I solved it myself.
    Solution:
    Press F10 and a screen appears for configuring the system.
    Select the "Secure Boot" option and disable it and disable "Fast Boot"
    THEN next re-start (by pressing and hlding power button) and press F8 until it asks about starting up then follow the last part of this advice:
    http://www.howtogeek.com/107511/how-to-boot-into-safe-mode-on-windows-8-the-easy-way/
    Then it gives you the option to reset the graphics.
    It still prompts me to change the graphics but this can also be turned off by stopping all notifications which are rubbish anyway.
    Well done HP, no help and you have a faulty peice of software that prompts users to set screen resolution that makes the system unusable.
    Next PC will NOT be a HP one

  • How can I set the screen resolution ?

    hello brothers.
    my program works ultimately at 1024/768 screen resolution.
    since I want to make sure that peaple who using that program will see it correct, I want to explicitly change the resolution of the screen.
    how can I do that? please..

    I believe you use the setDisplayMode() method of the GraphicsDevice object to do this.
    If you go to http://www.scottshaver2000.com/ and download the source code to H.E.A.T., you will find a nice example of video mode switching. His game pops up a window showing the available configurations, then lets you select the one you want and switch to it.
    The applicable classes are in his com.sas.gui package: FullScreenJFrame.java and VideoModeSelector.java.

  • Is it possible to make a photo's resolution too high

    I am struggling with printing my christmas photos. I scanned my 8 X 10 photos at 1200 dpi which gave me a 9620 X 11936 file which is 38.3 MB. If I am patient enough...meaning hours of waiting...my PC will print the photos to my HP 1200 dpi printer using the Kodak EasyShare Software. These prints turn out great but it is too painful. iPhoto won't even print to the HP, preview, or save a pdf of them. I just want excellent quality prints and the 600 dpi looks bad. I'm also interested in trying out a book order. Can anyone help me figure out how to print these files? Is it possible to send files this large in for a large hardcover book order? If I need to drop my resolution how can I do it without rescanning? And last, What resolution will give me photo store quality prints from both my printer and if I order prints from the iPhoto program?

    then save as TIF or JPEG.
    Another really good alternative to TIFF or JPEG is PNG. PNG is a lossless file format that has about half the file size of a TIFF. I've been using it for scanning my slides.
    The resolution you should scan at depends on:
    1. The actual quality of your scanner. Is it really a full 1200 dpi scanner or is it interpolating to give that resolution. There are some other tricks that scanning software like Silverfast can do to decrease the noise and increase the dynamic range, that have more impact on image quality than sheer number of pixels.
    2. The quality and nature of what you're scanning. For an 8x10 photo, 1200 dpi will just show up the grain in the photo paper. Same thing for scanning a 35mm slide at over 1600 dpi -- depending on the film stock, you may hit the resolution of the film before you max out the resolution of the scanner.
    3. What you're going to do with the image. Obviously printing a very large print, or cropping down to a small portion of the frame requires more pixels (assuming they have real data in them). Prints from Kodak, etc., on photo paper actually require fewer pixels (150 dpi for the final print size) than printing from your inkjet or a photo book (which uses a halftone screen that does best with about 2x as many pixels as lines in the screen, or about 300 dpi).
    Bottom line, the final number of pixels across for your scanned image is more significant than the so-called resolution you scan at. A good quality 1200x1600 pixel image is more than adequate for many purposes.
