2. In the Device Manager, expand the Display adapters listing, and right-click the display chipset or driver option, and select Update Driver Software ... .

This should re-install the proper graphics driver for your computer.

Adjust the display resolution

Some problems with the notebook display resolution can be resolved by adjusting the resolution. For instance, video games often switch the resolution while the game is running in order to optimize frame rates and graphical quality; if such a game shuts down or exits improperly, the resolution may not be restored to its original settings.

Windows 7 : Click Start , enter resolution in the search field, and then select the Adjust screen resolution control panel application from the search results list. Move the slider bar until you find the resolution you prefer, and click OK .

Windows Vista : Click Start , enter personalization in the search field, and then select thePersonalization control panel application from the search results list. In thePersonalization window, click Display Settings . Move the slider bar until you find the resolution you prefer, and click OK .

Windows XP : Click Start , then click Control Panel . Double-click the Display icon, and select the Settings tab. Move the slider bar until you find the resolution you prefer, and click OK .
