@Daniel_TAug 17.2004 β€”Β EW That's gross! Stuck with 800x600.. OUCH!

But, from my experiences (even though I've been told other wise) resolution depends on your video card. (i know this because I use 1024x768 on our family computer, but when I hooked our monitor up to my computer (which has onboard video) it could only go to 800x600)

So, is there anything wrong with your video card?

@NeczyauthorAug 17.2004 β€”Β hmm ok, lemme do that. I restarted and that didnt fix it...so! system restore time.

@PeOfEoAug 17.2004 β€”Β System restore might not fix drivers. You can just download the divers at the video card manufacturer's website and reinstall them.

@NeczyauthorAug 17.2004 β€”Β hmm... weird. It is indeed fixed, and my drivers were up to date. Not sure what was up... Ah well, fixed. Thanks ?
