While viewing a thread here, the forum went from perfect visual clarity to a washed out appearance. The most obvious example is on any given topic page where the listed threads I have viewed are a lighter shade of blue and unread ones are bold blue. Now the bold is 2-3 shades lighter and the lighter blue ones are just easily discernible but washed out looking.
View 1 RepliesSince upgrading to Windows 10 from 7, I ran into the same issue as [URL] ....
So I tried the catalyst scaling option for my desktop and this seemed to fix the issue for mostly everything, desktop and most games, However, the problem still seems to arise with some games I try to play, such as Xcom Enemy Within or Dawn of War 2. Changing resolution in these games doesn't appear to have any effect, the image is still falling off the screen, I use my desktop on a 32 inch TV as opposed to a monitor via HDMI, and keep it set to 1600x900 as opposed to its native 1920x10180, but even leaving it at 1920 has the same effect.
I have my specs on a dxdiag file, dunno where to upload it here, but I'm using a AMD Radeon R9 200 Series on an Asus I built.
I was working on my MIL's laptop over the weekend, and she was having problems with games on Windows 10. She's running a Yoga 2 Pro, and launching full screen games requires a resolution change. The game would launch, and be running normally, but attempting to give it focus would always drop you back into the desktop.
After doing some research, it's a remaining bug from the beta. Resolution changes causes the start menu to steal focus, which causes you to drop down into the desktop. Alt tabbing into the game repeats the cycle. The games (in this case) were not crashing, just unable to display.
I recently upgraded to Windows 10 on my desktop (upgraded from Windows 7, activated and then did a clean install) and ever since I've been encountering an odd issue:
Every time I reboot the PC, the resolution changes from 1600x900 to 1024x768. This happens after both restarting and shutting down. Every time Windows boots, it resets the resolution.
My specs are as follows:
CPU - Intel Xeon X3220 (OCed to 3.2GHZ)
RAM - 8GB DDR2-800
MOBO - Gigabyte EP45-UD3R
GPU - XFX Radeon HD6870 (Using latest drivers)
OS - Windows 10 Pro
how to fix it? Once I'm logged on, I can change the resolution back fine, and games run fine too, so it's definitely detecting my card properly and using the Radeon drivers
I must say, I'm a bit disappointed with Windows 10... Under Win 7 everything worked flawlessly, whereas under 10 I get loads of these small issues that make the experience particularly frustrating. Chief among them is the fact that Windows 10 is slow as anything - a fresh install takes longer to boot than my year old Windows 7 install did, and just generally feels less responsive than 7 did.
I recently got a new computer after my old one crashed. i installed my old 750 ti that was in the last computer and updated the drivers. I plugged it into the same 4k tv my last computer was hooked up to. However, when i try to switch to 4k resolution (3840x2160p) I am met with a black screen until it switches back to 1080p.
specs:
Windows 10
750 ti sc
i5 6400
8gb ram
1tb hdd
We installed windows 10 on our desk top computer from direct download. once everything was completed. The resolution on monitor is stuck on 800x600 and the desktop is compacted in the middle of the screen. The monitor is 19 or 20 inches, but nevertheless the desktop is about an inch and half smaller on each end of monitor. We were able to change through settings icon size, but still left with compacted screen.
View 8 Repliesi have downloaded and install windows 10 from the official site on 31st july,but i can't control my brightness option and resolution option....
View 3 RepliesThe monitor is connected to the computer via HDMI and we can see Windows on the screen but Windows sprawls beyond the physical edges of the screen in every direction. That means we see only the top little bit of the task bar and the Windows button is beyondn the left edge of the screen and the clock is beyond the right edge of the screen. I've tried a few different screen resolutions but the image ALWAYS sprawls so that all four edges are lost. What do I need to do so that this sprawling stops?
View 2 RepliesThis has only started happening recently - every few boots, the screen choice between Windows 10 and XP appears with the wrong resolution. The image is small on the screen. If I select Windows 10, the full boot sequence continues with that resolution. However, if I select 'Advanced options' and then 'Continue to Windows 10', the resolution changes to the correct format.
A week or so back, I went back to a previous set point and that seemed to cure the problem. Then it returned.
I downloaded windows 10 - I had wins. 8 touch screen, now I don't have my touch screen any longer. How can I get my touch screen back?
View 1 RepliesMy wife's account is no longer on the startup screen of my computer. I have delted her account & reset it multiple times and deleted from the registry as well. Every time it does not come back BUT when I add it back in as a user it says she can sign it but again, its not on the startup screen. When I reset her account the registry does not have her account back in either. I have tried both family user & other user but never shows up on the startup screen ????????
View 1 RepliesI upgraded to windows 10 from windows 7. All was working fine. Now, I can't access the modern start screen, cortana or apps. The following things might have cause this: I changed my PCs name, I installed more ram, I created a local log in and there was an update just before this happened. I tried to use a restore point but the laptop said it failed. I have tried the powershell solution with no luck. I have tried creating a new user but it won't let me add a new user.

View 5 RepliesSo late last night I decided to upgrade expecting everything to work. Well I was in for a surprise when the default resolution is 1024x768 and my monitor is 1920x1280. The best part when I do think I have got it fixed the highest resolution is 1600x1200. I have tried my monitors size detection and refit options with no success, my monitor is a hannas-g hl269. Its not much of a difference in resolution but its causing me motion sickness when I tried playing games.
View 2 RepliesI can access the screen in control panel to change display resolution in Windows 10 but can't adjust the resolution. It just won't let me! My display is two inches to the left and icons appear stretched vertically.
View 1 RepliesSo on my dell xps 13 that I just put windows 10 on, I'm looking for a way to have the icons rescale to the correct size when changing displays without signing out? For example, I'll have it plugged into my monitor, then unplug the laptop to use it, and when the laptop screen turn's back on everything on the desktop is supper small. A sign out and in fixes this, but that's less then ideal.

View 1 RepliesI've recently updated to Windows 10. At first there were no problems and it was running fine. However, when I restarted my computer I noticed that the resolution had changed from 1680x1050 to 600x800. I can change it back to 1680x1050, but every time I restart my computer it changes back to the smaller resolution. I have tried to update my graphics drivers (I have an AMD 6670) but I don't know if it worked and the problem still occurs.
