Solve : Screen being odd?

Answer»

Hola señoritas

I run the Nvidia 275 Core XXX edition and I use a HP wide 20"-screen and I have been running this since summer last year.

As always I have been running the 1680x1050 resolution but today I noticed my screen had changed resolution to 1600x768 and I cannot find my desired resolution in the list (1680x1050).

I tried downloading a new Nvidia driver but that didnt work so I'm fresh out of ideas of what the problem might be.


Any ideas?I resolved the ISSUE however why this happened is still odd.

It was removed from the resolution list in nvidias control panel,

I was however able to get it back with some searching but I want to know what the cause of this was...so please post ideas Sometimes SOMETHING similar happens to me, and I atcually have to change the DVI port I'm using in order to resolve it.
I'm still unsure whether the issue is my card or my monitor though.The DCC of the monitor is probably being reported incorrectly at times.

The Display Data Channel or DDC is a collection of digital communication protocols between a computer display and a graphics adapter which allows the display to communicate its supported display modes to the adapter and adjust monitor parameters such as brightness and contrast from the computer host.
it could easily be a loose connection.even though I solved it in the computer's reso, I cant change it in games e.g. Anyone know what this is? I'm going to try with a different cable.Quote from: phallan on June 30, 2010, 11:30:33 AM

Are you using DVI, HDMI or VGA?
I have both VGA and DVI on my 21" LCD, VGA seems to be more resolution driven, and all on screen controls are available whereas the DVI (which I use now) is controlled a lot more by the graphics card, i.e I cannot change anything but the COLOUR mode eg theater, game, scenery or the OSD position!
