Re: Satellite L30D - Low screen resolution after Windows 7 installation

I have installed Windows 7 on my Satellite L30D. Since this installation, I cannot have a better resolkuton than 1024x768.*It was much better with Windows Vista.
I have downloaded the latest ATI driver. No effect. I cannot find the Catalyst Control Center as well. What can I do?

Hi
The Satellite L30D isnt known to me...
Do you mean Satellite L30 or Satellite L300D?
Normally you have to install the display driver if you want to use higher screen resolutions but check the specifications of your internal display first. Maybe the native screen resolution is 1024x768 and you cant use a higher one.
You can download all drivers for your notebook on the Toshiba website!!! Dont use the drivers from ATI directly, they are not designed for mobile chips.

Satellite A500: Low screen resolution using Win 7

Hi,
I've looked around the forum and haven't found any real solutions to my problem so...
I recently bought a Satellite A500 and did a fresh install of Windows 7 Professional on it.
Apparently I was supposed to just upgrade it in order to keep the drivers but being the noob I am, I didn't.
So now my resolution is stuck at 1024x768 or 800x600, neither of which are native.
I've downloaded the win7 64-bit drivers from the Toshiba website, but apparently I already have the latest ATI driver installed.
However I still can't change the resolution and my monitor is recognized as generic non-PnP.
Is there any way to check if I have the display driver already?
And also any solutions to the display problem would be much obliged. It's the only thing left bothering me now about this new laptop.

Hi
I assume you are using Win 7 64bit OS since you have chosen the Win 7 64bit display driver is it right?
What A500-xxx do you have exactly?
The Toshiba European driver page provides three different display drivers for A500 series; Intel, nVidia and ATI
Seems three different graphic chips have been installed in A500 series
You should firstly check what graphic chip your notebook uses
Then go to device manager and uninstall the installed display driver.
Then visit the Toshiba European driver page, download the right display driver for the graphic chip and install it.
After that reboot the unit and check how the notebook would run.

13" Cannot set screen resolution in Windows 7 to 1440 by 900

Just finished installing BootCamp with Windows 7 Pro. For some reason the screen resolution in Windows display driver only goes up to 1200 not 1440 x 900. On MacOS it is obviously working fine. Any ideas?

On my MacBook Air 11 with Windows 7 64 bit I experience an even worse situation: when ever trying to install a NVidia driver (also when following the mentioned instructions) the setup executable reports - after a check of system compatibility - that no compatible graphic hardware (=320m) could be found. Luckily at least MacOS X is aware of a NVidia 320m installed.
Any Idea? Thanks

Can't start MAIL or STORE because of "too low screen resolution"

I can't start either mail app or store app because of "too low screen resolution".
My netbook (eMachines eM350) has maximum 1024x600, these app require at least 1024x768

I have developed a lot of code, and while more recent machines have higher resolutions, I find it prudent not to assume everyone has an 8K panel
No one cares much what you have or have not done, this thread is not about you. If you'd actually developed any Modern apps you'd know that the minimum resolution for them is, as has been stated numerous times here already. Stating that you develop for 640x480
displays clearly indicates that you've never developed a Modern app. Additionally, it should be obvious even to you that a minimum resolution of 1024x768 does not assume that everyone has "an 8K panel".
go write some shaders you clearly have no idea whatsoever about development
i can make programs rescale to fit any screen size, just because you are too stunned to figure that out
programmatically designed dialogs can adapt

Cannot Adjust Screen Brightness after Windows 8.1 Update

Hi:
Most likely you need to install the graphics driver for W8.1 from your PC's support and driver page.

Upgraded my macbook pro to mountain lion. But during windows installation, it refuses coz of FAT file system. Also is it possible to partition after windows installation???

I just upgraded my macbook pro to mountain lion. Now I want to install windows, but during installation using bootcamp, it says windows can't install on FAT partition. I couldn't change it to NTFS. Also how can I partition my hard disk after windows installation. Coz before windows installation, if I partition hard disk, it won't allow me to install windows saying startup disk can't be partitioned.......help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Now, I wish to upgrade from Mountain Lion 10.8.5 to latest version of OS X Yosemite, but I am in doubt and worry if after upgraded to Yosemite, can I still using my Windows XP where I installed now in Mountain Lion 10.8.5 BootCamp?
Yosemite does not allow a new installation of XP, but an existing XP installation is self-contained and will continue to work. Does your XP installation use a FAT partition? You may be better off using NTFS and then upgrading to Yosemite.
Will the Yosemite upgrade process delete my Windows XP partition or crash my current BootCamp? Can I still have an option to load OS X or Windows XP (press 'alt/option' key during boot up) after upgraded to Yosemite?
If you have made any re-sizing attempts to WXP partition Yosemite will cause problems, otherwise the Yosemite upgrade leaves XP untouched.
Are there any specific reasons to upgrade to Yosemite?

Windows Does Not Remember Screen Resolution after restart

Hi Everyone,
I have a strange problem with Windows 8.1 Pro
My screen resolution resets to 800 x 600 everytime i restart my PC, and I will have to set my resolution again everytime I start my PC.
Any idea?
Cheers
Nelson

Hi Nelson,
Please check the display adapters on Device Manager.
It may be caused by your graphics driver.
I suggest you reinstall the latest graphics driver to check the result.

Optimal screen resolution for Windows XP

I'm using Windows XP at times, and it was installed for me when I purchased the computer via MacMall. The screen resolution is sat at screen: 1440 x 900 Color 32 BPP. Is this the desirable setting? I have not change it, as I'm wary to experiment too much with Windows XP on the Mac.

If you're using an LCD, the optimal resolution is what ever the native (usually advertised) resolution is of the LCD. Anything lower and things may be blurry. It cannot go higher.

M400 Screen Resolution for Windows 7

Hi all,
I have an m400 tablet that I just got off lease and fixed up. It is great running Windows 7 except that I think that I am supposed to be able to set the screen resolution to something higher than 1024 x 768. Right now, that is the highest setting. The only other choice is 800 x 600. I have installed the latest graphics drivers for windows 7 from the toshiba support website.
Is this the limit for this machine? It seems like it should go higher considering the M200 machine goes to the higher resolution with windows 7.
I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
Thanks!

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for the reply Jerry!
It is an S5032.
I looked it up and you are right about the screen resolution. It makes me feel better to know it is correct. I had been reading about the higher resolution and I didn't realize there were diffferent specs for different versions of the notebook.
The m200s that I bought both allow for the higher resolution (by default on XP and with a hacked driver in windows 7). It is understandable as to why they changed to the lower native resolution though. The higher resolution makes reading text difficult on a 12.1 inch screen.
It is hard to belive that this notebook retailed for $1700 in 2007 and I bought this one for $50 on ebay + $25 for a battery and power cord. I already had a hard drive and copy of windows for it (Windows 8 Consumer Preview also worked very well but I removed it because I thought the graphics driver was not working haha).
Thanks again.

Not clear images with lower screen resolutions on Tecra M5

Hi,
we have some M5s with Intel graphics board which work fine with the usual 1024*768 screen resolution.
Now we are buying some new M5s equipped with nVidia Quadro, and they seem to have a native resolution of 1400*1050.
If I try to scale resolution to 1024*768 or even 1280*1024, images are badly out of focus. But I think icons at 1400*1050 on a 14" display are really too small, for the average of users.
No solution?
thanks

This is to do with the native resolution of the LCD. Unless you display at maximum resolution, any attempt to work at a lower resolution will require the graphics card to rescale, causing the resultant image to blur as the graphics card interpolates.
The only solution is to use Windows Vista because the GUI has been designed for larger native LCD resolutions, meaning the icons are designed bigger (approx. twice the size of XP)

Screen resolution in Windows XP

Hi all,
I have a iMac 24", with a screen resolution of 1920x1200. I installed Windows XP with Bootcamp. The problem I have now is in Windows, the highest possible choice for screen resolution is 1600x1200 which doesn't look good at all.
How do I change that into 1920x1200?
I am a complete newbie when it comes to windows so help is appreciated. (I only installed it to run SolidWorks during work).
Thanks,
Veronica

Hi Veronica,
just to rule ou the obvious:
Have you installed the BootCamp Windows Drivers from the OSX DVD yet ?
If not, while in Windows pop in the OSX DVD and the Driver Installation should start automatically.

Screen resolution in windows not as high as in 10.8

I recently got my hard drive replaced in my Mid 2010 27" iMac. I've partitioned the drive to reinstall Win 7 but now the screen resolution in Win7 is not as high as it was on the old hard drive. In 10.8, it runs at full resolution 2560x1440 but in Windows it runs at 1920x1440 max.
Anyone know how I can get Windows to show the full screen res because 1920x1440 looks like wallpaper that has been 'stretched to fit' and it's annoying to look at.
thanks

NB200 - Virtual screen resolution on Windows 7

Quote:
+The 10.1-inch glossy screen features a resolution of 1,024 x 600, and is bright and pleasant to use.+
+If you find that some programs have elements which appear off the screen, the graphics drivers support a virtual resolution up to 1,600 x 1,200, allowing you to pan the larger-than-screen resolution around to find what you need.+
(http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/notebooks/0,39050488,44700445p,00.htm)
The quote above and several like it (Google "NB200 virtual resolution") led me to purchase the NB200 under the impression that this was an actual feature.
Neither the pre-loaded Windows 7 Starter nor a fresh install of Windows 7 Home Premium have resulted in any such feature being available. I've checked all the options in the Intel drivers and nothing seems to be able to enable a resolution larger than 1024x600.
Has anyone managed to find this elusive feature and if it doesn't exist under Windows 7 (which the netbook *was* sold with pre-installed) then why is it being touted as a feature?

Hi
Im not sure what the guys meant by virtual resolution but usually there should be preinstalled tool called Zooming Utility.
You could increase the resolution (icons, display) pressing the FN +F2 and could decease the display again pressing FN + F1.
I think this was meant.

Satellite A - Wrong screen resolution in games

Hi,
I change the operation system from Windows Vista home to Windows 7 64bit , and I download the Windows driver but when I playing games it appear at 1024*768 pixel and my laptop have 1366*768 pixel.
If any body have a solution to this problem please help

Hello
Unfortunately I think you must offer more details about your problem like exact notebook model number and all games that you play.
Important point is that the game must support the native screen resolution of your monitor, otherwise you are not able to use 1366*768 pixel. You should check this firstly!
Furthermore make sure that newest display driver from Toshiba is installed and update your DirectX version.
