Windows 7 resolution Problem

I have just install windows 7, evrything is OK, but i couldn't put the resolution
to 1024x600. So tell me how experts...
i tried to disable aero to get the 1024x600 interpolated resolution working. Right click on dektop -> personalize -> and choose the first "easy of access" Theme, but it didn't work for me.

Have you installed your Display Drivers for the Shift?
Also, what resolutions CAN you see?
Thanks,
Ryan

Use a WIndows 7 Basic Theme
The one you use still uses AERO I think.
Also, update your video driver first.
Then select Windows 7 Basic theme. It will disable AERO but still look good.

[Q] Screen Resolution Issues

Hi, using a compaq 2710p laptop which has a pen input display so I obviously thought it would be good for win8 However when I was running the DP i couldn't change my screen res. The screen itself is 16:10, but I think running windows 7 I use 16:9 to keep things simple. Now for some reason the CP (and the DP) doesn't let me change the resolution whatsoever. It' currently stuck at 1280x800 (4:3) So I can, luckily use the store but can't snap apps. I have no options to change the res at all? The option is just greyed out.

What graphics card do you have? I couldn't change resolution until I installed GeForce drivers from NVidia, if you have ati or Intel you just need the latest windows 7 driver.

ATI i think but I'll double check later on. In screen resolution I clicked display drivers, then update drivers. It went from microsoft basic drivers to some long name but it changed back because it was a "bad driver"?

Ah that's probably it then, you need to find out what the graphics card is then go to ati/amd website and get the latest relevant drivers

[Q] Windows XP High Resolution Scrolling problem.

Hello,
I've managed to install Windows XP on the HTC Shift, but now that I installed everything, it is all working. Except the VGA driver, this gives me some problems. When the screen resolution is 800 x 480, nothings wrong. When I change it to 1024 x 768, I see a "part" of the screen and need to point the mouse to the bottom to move the whole screen. Is this normal? Cause I don't like this mode. I just want it as in Windows Vista/7. Anybody can help me out?
Thanks in advance,
-Armazia

regarding resolution change

I have a question about resolution changes in x9500.
I have installed WinXP SP3 on my x9500. There are a lot of resolution options available. I choose any of them, but the actual resolution of the screen doesn't change. It's still just showing a 800 * 480 window, of a, say, 1024 * 720 desktop. So it just pans around the desktop in a 800*480, if people know what I mean.
Is this normal? How can I get out of this? I'd rather have a "shrunken" desktop with higher interpolated resolution than a large "virtual" desktop that I pan around in.

I have asked about this as well, Nobody answered me on this. I hope you'll get an answer, would save my ass too. I am using windows 7 now, which is snappy but you won't get the same performance as in Windows XP, And with this I mean mostly the memory. In windows XP its around 100 to 200 max when using nothing but the os, On windows 7 this lays around 470 - 550 means that this already takes half of the memory.

So nobody has a fix for this?

That's normal with windows 7 and vista, doesn't affect performance. The way windows 7 manages RAM memory is quite different from windows XP, and most of the times you get a better performance on the same hardware using windows 7 over windows XP. So I will not be worried too much about windows 7 memory use. It pre-loads most applications you normally use. I already run several scenarios and all the time windows 7 wins over windows XP on the same hardware (and I talking about low processors like the Atom and similar). Remember RAM memory not used is wasted in windows 7.
