Pixel Settings

[Debbie]

HELP~ Why can I not change my pixel settings on my monitor.  I have a CTX Monitor and when I try to change the settings it won't move.  It is stuck on 640 x 480.
THanks

Are you working with the latest drivers for your video card?

[Debbie]

Probably not and I have no idea how to update it, I had to reinstall windows and it hasn't worked right since, how can I down load the right driver and where the heck do I find the right driver!?
Thanks
Deb

Check to see if a CD or floppy disk came with your computer/video card.  Use that to re-install your original driver.  Once you get that installed, go to hardware manager, right click on the video card and go to the properties item.  From there you should see a button to click to "Update Driver".  If you can't find/don't have the disk, find out who manufactured the video card (can ususally find out by going to the hardware manager) and look them up on the Internet.  From there you should be able to make your way to a download/support area.  You might even try calling them up if they have a toll-free number.  Good luck
