Problems with display
Hi!
My videocard is: Nvidia Geforce 2 MX400 I have a problem I changed my monitor because my old 17inch monitor didn't work (today it have broken). I've got a Samsung Syncmaster400b After I reset the computer the only resolution I can get is 640*480 on 16color (NOT 16 Bits ! But 16 color) I can't choose another resolution or color mode - it switches back to 640*480 on 16 colors What should I do? Last time (a year ago) I've been using this very monitor on this computer (same videocard) and it worked perfectly... Should I switch to old driver for the videocard? Will this help? I've been installed a half a year ago the 43.45 version for nvidia videocard (Win9X) Please help I can't work ! I'm writing this message on 640*480 and it really sux - small screen, worse colors , Ican't see everything on the scrren Thanx. m |

I've got a Samsung Syncmaster400b Is your monitor recognized as such? Remove any monitor and display drivers from Device Manager, reboot and have Windows redetect the lot. If you're asked for video drivers, direct Windows to the directory that has the unpacked nVIDIA drivers. I can't work! I'm writing this message on 640*480 and it really sux - small screen, worse colors, I can't see everything on the screen and you're going epileptic from the 60 Hz refresh rate too :-). Martin. |

You did NOT say which driver version you are currently using. But try using
the 45.23 driver and see if that's stable and allows you to set things correctly. The latest Nvidia drivers (5x.xx and 6x.xx) will not be stable with that card. -- DaveW "MOLDOVA.NET" wrote in message ... Hi!
