can't change display resolution
I installed a pop up stopper and Spybot and after that my
display is on 16 colors and the lowest resolution and I'm unable to change it. I tried everything in the trouble shooter but I can't fix it. My system restore doesn't seem to be working either. I uninstalled the pop up stopper and Spybot but I still can't get the display to go back to 256 colors. |

Reboot to Safe Mode
Open Device Manager Remove ALL Display Adapters Remove ALL Monitors Reboot to Normal Mode - Windows will reinstall the required drivers - hopefully curing your problem. -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "Chris" wrote in message ...
