I have just bought a second hand Acer TM4150 and I can't get a better resolution than 1024 * 768. I would like a resolution of 1280 * 960, does anyone know how I can achieve this. Can you fool it into thinking that it is the attached monitor (default monitor not the plug and play monitor), which seems to have these capabilities. Can someone tell me about plug and play monitor which sends info to the processor (EDID or something like that).
I have the correct driver, and I have tried different drivers. Is there a universal driver that could do this?
My TV's native resolution is 1366 x 768. My VAIO FW-190 has Intel Chipset and both the Windows built in software and Intel provided graphic card settings software do not show the 1366x768 resolution. I can't find a way to set the Vaio's HDMI output to that resolution.
I recently purchased an Acer tm4510 laptop (Mobile INTEL(R) 915GM/GMS, 910 Express Chipset Family) and the resolution is not very good. I can only get 2 resolutions, 600 * 800 and 1024 * 768. I would like to get a higher resolution, such as 1280 * 960. Is this possible, I saw somehwere about non plug and play monitors which would have a higher resolution. Can make the processor think it is a non plug and play (something about EDID information back to the processor). I have the correct drivers and I have tried several others without sucess. The main reason I want the better resolution is edit JPGs and to maybe watch a video sometime. Does anybody know how a can better resolution for these events.
I have a 5.1 output on my comp and after reading up on Wikipedia I'm still not sure whether I should be getting sound from 5 or all 6 speakers. In the test thing it says ; If the low frequency sounds are not heard from the subwoofer (Tuba) then I should check the "Swap" box to swap the center speaker for the subwoofer, which seems to indicate I should normally be getting sound from all 6 speakers, as when I make the test Icones all 6 speakers send out soundwaves. I'm pretty sure that, in the past, I was getting sound from all the speakers, and that the subwoofer was a lot stronger than before.
Very often, when my 5920G boots, it changes from the native 1280x800 resolution to 1024x768. Because of that, the icons mess up and I have to change the resolution and then put the icons back at their place.
There is roughly 75% chance this will happen when my laptop boots.
Adding this with my other problems makes using this 5920G a frustrating experience!
This started happening months ago, when I reformated the laptop the problem had gone, and now it reappeared.
Had my Acer Aspire 8930 for 11 months now and I've always assumed it displayed images at 1920 x 1080 because of the blu ray drive and the fact it has a sticker on the front of the laptop which says 'FULL HD 1080 PLAYBACK'.
I've just gone into my display settings and it says 1680 x 945!
That is on the highest setting possible.
The sticker on the side of the box it came in says;
Aspire 8930G - 584G32Bn which according to [url] states at the top in the summary it boasts 1920 x 1080.
How can the sticker on my laptop claim full HD at 1080? Do I have the wrong screen on my laptop or am I missing something?
From what i see from the Acer Aspire Gemstone official page. It would seem like all models in that series has 1020p display regardless of screen size from the specifications page.
However, I have two laptops in question right now.
First is my friend's 6935G which is featured in the official page and is said to have a Full HD display on its 16" screen. However, the maximum resolution available on my the laptop is only 1366x768. Furthermore, there is a sticker on the laptop indicating "Full 1020p HD display" and no, I did not get confused with it over the "Full 1020p HD Playback"
Secondly, is my own personal 6930Z which is essentially almost the same except the lack of the 9600GT, biometric fingerprint reader and blu-ray player found in the 6935G thus its low price. As seen from the website, the WHOLE series is supposed to have 1020p resolution display which mine is part of. However, my max display resolution capable is also the same as the 6935G although mine doesn't have the sticker that the 6935G has. I'm not complaining due to mine being a budget model but shouldn't the 6935G have the touted 1020p display?
I am buying and external monitor for my father's aspire one and i would like to know the maximum external resolution. I am planning on buying the 22" samsung 2232bw
I have Acer Aspire 8930G and running Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit with SP2.
All drivers installed and working fine.
I noticed that my Crystal Eye webcam doesn't have the recording button and the HD resolution selection is missing. My only choices are 320 x 240 and 640 x 480.
I have a Acer Aspire V5-561G-54208G1TMAIK for some weeks now. I am struggling to get detailed specification about the HDMI connection. Especially, if it will support a 4K monitor (3840x2160).
all available screen resolutions on the full hd version (1920x1080) of their 6930/6920? I'd like to know if it can be reduced to 1366x768 before I buy the notebook so I can have a true pixel for pixel reproduction when connected to my HD ready plasma. I know I could just buy the lower resolution version of this notebook but I've read that 768 vertical pixels is not enough for this 16" display, too much scrolling it seems and one review even said that graphics on the screen look almost jagged when compared side by side to a notebook with a higher resolution.
My brother just bought an Acer Aspire 3680.He purchased 1 gig of DDR2 Memory from Crucial. When we get to the desktop the screen is fine at first then the screen goes off and back on with 8 bit display. 512 DDR2 came in the machine. Crucial site said he could mix memory sizes. I tried it with the 1 gig stick by itself in case the mixed memory was the problem. Same thing..I've tried 2 sticks of 512...same thing. I've tried 2 sticks of 1 gig each..same problem. This laptop won't allow any upgrade at all. Will only run correctly with (1) 512 stick. I've never seen this problem before. I've installed many memory sticks in computers. This is a first for me. What could be causing this?? Any advice would be appreciated. BTW. the computer shows the upgrade amount of memory but the display color keeps changing to 8 Bit! I change it back to 32 and it reverts back after a few moments to 8 Bit. I went to Acer and installed an updated driver for the Intel Graphics card thinking the driver would help. I haven't installed a bios update yet. Called Acer and they said to return it for repair.
I'm looking into buying this laptop. Certain online websites, such as Acer's, have said that it's maximum resolution is up to 1920 1080, but I am not sure if this is true for all model of the 6930. Other websites say that it only goes up to 1300 something.
I just got my new Acer Aspire V14 touch (Windows 8.1) and want to connect it to my Sharp Aquos LC-32DA5U TV via HDMI. I can see the picture but cannot adjust the screen resolution to the native resolution recommended for this TV (1366x768). Funny enough this is exactly the resolution my laptop is using.
When I force use of this resolution via show all in the display properties, then I don't get a picture but just a black screen on my TV.
Is there any other driver etc that I need to install to make this work? It worked perfectly fine as PnP with my old Lenovo computer under Windows 7.
I want to connect my acer aspire E1 572 6870 having intel HD 4400 graphics to a QNIX Q2710 1440p monitor(yet to buy). The monitor supports 2560x1440p through HDMI 1.4V. Will my laptop be able to output this resolution via hdmi?
I plan on buying the dell studio 14z in a few weeks, but the screen resolution is holding me back right now from purchasing it. I don't know whether I should get the 720p or the 900p.
I am afraid that if i go with the 900p, the text will be too small for me. Please let me know what you think I should get. PLEASE POST PICTURES OF BOTH 720P AND 900P IF YOU HAVE ANY
Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question. Traditionally,(well at least for me anyway) laptop/montior screen resolutions are represented by two numbers. E.g. 1280x800, 1440x900, 1680x1050 etc. But on the XPS 16, it's available in 720p and 1080p? What exactly are their resolutions? 1280x720 and 1920x1080(assuming they come in 16:9 aspect ratio?)
If so, Q1) On a 16inch display, wouldn't one want more 'space' than 1280x720 gives? For me personally, the resolution should at least be 1440x900 but better be at 1680x1050. Q2) On a 16inch display, can one REALLY tell the difference between 720p and 1080p?
just bought a vgn-aw11s,it's a nice machine but one thing is really bugging me.when i reset the resolution, to one that i can see without having to wear my reading glasses,it is automatically reset to the highest setting when the computer is restarted??.Also had a hard time updating the graphic's driver either from sony or nvidia(ge force 9600m gt).
I have a FW 290 with the ati graphics card. When I connect the laptop to my tv with the hdmi cable the resolution is displayed correctly on the tv at 1920*1080. However, when I disconnect the cable the laptop resolution goes to 1440*900 instead of 1600*900. So there are black lines on the edges of the screen. If I go to display settings or to the ati catalyst control center I cannot change the resolution back to 1600*900. 1440*900 is displayed as the max. The only way I can fix this is by restarting the computer.
I love the Sony Z but the 1600 resolution is holding me back from recommending to a client because he can't stand those very high resolutions. We purchased a FW series (16.4" w/ 1920 res) and that was too high. 1600x900 looks even worse on a 13 inch.
My question is, is there any resolution options with the Z to go lower?
The SR "Blue Label" series that Sony made for Best Buy is the perfect machine, except the for the fact that it doesn't have dedicated graphics or good battery life. Is there any way to get a Z with the lower resolution?
Need 1366 x 768 resolution on 1600 x 900 model. Is it possible to do this by changing options in the hidden BIOS menu? Or by modifying the video card drivers?
where I can buy a DV5 with a decent processor and WSXGA+ resolution? All I can find are the basic models with the standard WXGA. I've tried everywhere I can think of, including the incredibly poor HP website.
I currently own a dv5-1235dx. The native resolution for this laptop is 1280x800. However, when I connect the HDMI cable to my laptop, the maximum resolution my display settings will allow is 1024x768. This makes it look awful on the TV, stretching a 4:3 display across a 16:9 screen.
my HPdv5t Intel 1680x1050 resolution laptop with hdmi to this 24in HP w2408h monitor and getting the monitor's full 1920x1200 resolution? I know its refurb'd, but I think I can live with that.
It has a 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 9200M GS vid card.
Is the video card the only thing that effects this?
I just got my new Studio XPS 1640 in the mail today and got a little excited. I started tweaking stuff galore, following the variety of vista tweaking thread for reducing boot time, speeding up your comp etc... but I think I must have screwed something up because the computer started lagging like crazy. i couldn't even navigate in "My Computer"
So me, being all excited and dumb decided that I would reinstall Vista and partition my C drive (which is a 256gb SSD btw, if that's important), instead of learning about the Factory Image Restore.
So now my screen resolution sucks, and I'm frustrated and tired of trying to fix this. I just want it back to how it was before, fresh out of the box. I have the Vista CD and The Driver CD, and I tried installing every damned driver and application and whatever, but it's never the same as it came out of the box.
I can't find the webcam or facial recognition software anywhere and I'm missing the cool dock at the top and bleh. I'll stop ranting, but if anyone. ANYONE, knows how to help me I would greatly appreciate it. I just want the good laptop that I paid 2000$ for.
