How Do I Set My Resolution To 1600X900 In Win

  • 3

I have the Dell IN2010N monitor, and it says the best resolution for it is 1600×900. Right now, its resolution is 1280×1024. I went to settings and the only other option it gives me is 1600×1200. Can anyone tell me how to change it to 1600×900?

      “….Intel offers a work-around for this. I have attempted to download the drivers (several versions). All open and give me the error message that I don’t meet the minimum system requirements. I read the requirements and I appear to have them all so I give up. What a f—ing pain.”

      “All open and give me the error message that I don’t meet the minimum system requirements.”

      Are you SURE that’s what the message says ?

      You MAY get a message like that if you downloaded the WRONG drivers version.

      If you use a proper download and do the steps the wrong way, you WILL get an error message that says various things, but one of them is not “doesn’t meet the minimum system requirements” or similar.

      You can always do it this way, as I said in response 9 –

      “Un-install the Dell video “drivers” in Add or Remove Programs, reboot, DO NOT load video drivers when “New Hardware” pops up, then run the installation download for the Intel video drivers.”

      The correct Intel video drivers version is pointed to in response 9.

      It is a VERY good idea to DISABLE the resident module(s) – the part that runs all the time looking for suspicious activity – of all anti-malware software you have running on the computer, BEFORE you un-install and install video “drivers”, because sometimes it (they) interferes with the software installing properly.
      After you have installed the video drivers, you can enable it (them) again.

      If you don’t know how to do that, tell us which anti-malware software you have installed.
