Windows XP: Right click on the Desktop>Properties, go to Advanced, change resolution slider. When the window comes up that says "Do you want to keep these settings?" Say "Yes". If the screen goes black for 30 seconds then comes back normally, choose a different resolution setting or update your video card driver.

Windows 7: Right click on the Desktop>Monitor Resolution, then follow the instructions for Windows XP.

Hi

You don't say which operating system you are using.

The monitor resolves images across a fixed range of resolutions and resfresh rates.

It is the resolution of the graphics card or graphics adapter that can be changed, not that of the monitor.

Right click on empty space on your desktop > properties > settings.

Left click and hold on the slider and slide to the right in stages.

Each resolution change offers you a test page to accept or reject.

When satisfied Apply > Yes > Ok.

To reset the Refresh Rate:

Properties > settings > Advanced > Refresh Rate.

Then restart your computer.

Be careful not to exceed the resolution/refresh rate range of your monitor (1280 x 1024) / 75.0 Hz because if you do, when you restart the computer, the monitor will be unable to resolve the image and you will get a blank screen and/or an Out Of Range error message.

An out of range problem might only be resolved by using a different monitor to reset the resolution back to within the range of the preferred monitor.

Hope this helps

How to increase screen resolution from 800x600 to 1366x768

You need to get the correct video drivers for your Graphics card or on-board graphics chip. Just go to the support site of the graphics card or if it's on-board video go to the support site of the motherboard to get the proper drivers. Once the correct drivers are installed, you will be able to increase the resolution.

I accidently hit recall on my monitor settings. I now have a smaller veiwing screen with black edges

You didn't say which OS you're using but it sounds like you've changed the aspect ratio of your video signal. Different screen resolutions have somewhat different aspect ratios. The aspect ratio indicates the ratio of the number of pixels of width to those of height. For example: my video driver offers a resolution of 1280 x 960 or 1280 x 720 which would give screen aspect ratios of 1280/960 = 1.33 :1 and 1280/720 = 1.77 : 1. The latter would produce a narrower image. You can compensate somewhat by increasing your horizontal sweep voltage with your monitor menu. A better solution would be to select a resolution that more closely matches your monitor's screen size.

How can i adjust my monitor? too large and big letters. hope you can help? thanks

Sounds like you have got the resolution wrong. Try right clicking on a blank part of the screen, and then choose "Properties -> Settings"(XP) or "Screen Resolution" (Win7). There should be a resolution slider which you can increase.

If it's just the letters that are too large, it's possible you have increased the fonts (say in Internet Explorer). To reduce these, hover over the area, hold down the CTRL key on the keyboard, and move the mouse scroll wheel.

Lg driver download

If you're talking about using an LG TV as a computer monitor, the generic display driver will suffice. I've never seen any noticeable improvement on display or features when Windows displays the monitor correctly or as a generic. If your resolution is too low and you couldn't increase it, the problem is likely your resolution setting or video card driver, not your monitor driver.

We have a bang and olufsen beovision 7 40 inch tv. when we try to connect our laptop through vga port the tv appears blank without any display, tried connecting the laptop through dvi port also. The...

First, try setting your monitor refresh rate at 60Hz using a known-working monitor. (The VGA input of the Beovision 7 is recommended for 60Hz refresh rate). If this fails to produce output from the Beovision 7, it is very likely, your video driver's resolution is set too high for the Beovision 7 to display signal. If you are using the Beovision 7 as your primary monitor, first connect a known-working monitor to the computer and reduce the resolution to 1024x768. Once you have changed the resolution, try connecting the Beovision 7. If you get video signal, increase the resolution incrementally until you find the maximum resolution the Beovision 7 will handle.

IF YOU ARE USING THE BEOVISION 7 AS A SECONDARY MONITOR USING EXTENDED DESKTOP, reduce the resolution on Monitor 2 output to 1024x768. If video appears on the Beovision 7 at that resolution, incrementally increase the Monitor 2 resolution until you find the maximum resolution the Beovision 7 will accept as a secondary monitor.

Maximum resolution for my Samsung 740NW is now 800 X 600. Can this be increased to at least 1240 X 600? My system is Windows XP professional.

Your monitor can reportedly display a maximum resolution of 1280 x 720. The resolution your graphics card is outputting can be changed in your graphics card's resolution settings.

Can I increase the screen resolution on my EV700B monitor higher than 800x600? How?

Open Control Panel - Display - Settings tab - Screen Resolution move the slider to the right to increase the screen resolution.
If you cannot increase the screen resolution, it means the correct video driver was not installed generic VGA driver was installed.
In this case install the video driver for your graphics card and change the screen resolution.

I think it is your screen resolution it needs to be increased, go through my published guide entitled How to set your Desktop Screen Resolution?

Increased resolution and colour quality will give you an excellent picture.

Problem with my LG monitor L194WT

First change the referesh rate for your monitor. If that works, then you dont have to change the resolution. If that does not work, try increasing the rate again. Once you can get the game, then try to change the resolution from within the game options, if necessary..
