Okay, I'm stupid. No argument there. While tinkering with a new LCD
monitor I got at work I switched to the highest resolution available
2000 something x 1000 something. Whatever it was, it was a crazy-high
resolution. (Basically, I just wanted to see how tiny stuff got.) The
one thing I didn't think about was whether or not that new LCD could
even display something like that. It couldn't..and now I can't get it
to go back. See, my LCD just has a message floating around the screen
that says "Not Optimum Mode. Recommended Mode: 1280 x 1024 60hz." I
can't see Windows at all and I have to bring out my old CRT and hook it
up to see Windows. That's where the problem comes in (as if it already
wasn't a problem.) I'll hook up the CRT and reset the resolution to
sometihng normal (800x600) and restart just to make sure it kept the
settings and, indeed, it had. Yet, when I try again later and hook up
the LCD, I get that same "Optimum mode" message.
My question: How can I get the screen resolution to stay normal?
Thanks!
