Title: windows resolution issues(same question as main forum)
Post by: polaris on April 03, 2007, 05:39:03 pm
hi everyone
guess i shoulda asked here rather than in the main forum being as it seems a software issue, doh.
i was changing my desktop display resolution to run mame 32 better.
clicked on desktop properties etc and was initially only given two options ,the standard vga one (1024x768) and another of 800x600 which i changed it to.
when i moved to change it back i was given loads more size options (all higher) and i changed back to what i had first, now basically different parts of my desktop are at different resolutions.
any help would be much appreciated ,its really doing my head in

(sorry if the numbers arent exact theyre from memory)
