display properties
Hello:
My display layout is screwed up. Every time I try to change it using Display Properties in Settings, my computer freezes and I have to shut the Settings application down. Is there another way to change the display or to stop the Display Properties from freezing! Many thanks, |

Try this. Go to Start, Run and type: Msconfig Press Enter. Click
Selective Startup and then remove the check marks from Config.sys, Autoexec.bat and Startup items. Now exit and restart your system when prompted. On the next boot, try changing your display properties. It's possible that something loading at Startup is causing your problem. After you've changed the display properties, you can re-enable the Startup items. Windows doesn't need a Config.sys or Autoexec.bat file so unless you are running some program that requires one or both of these, you can leave them unchecked.
