So I have two monitors, a new one for 4k gaming and a little one for watching YouTube videos and searching Wikipedia while gaming. And I just got a new graphics card, with a VGA-DVID adapter cable to continue using my little monitor. When I started everything up, it all worked fine. Then I noticed my resolution was looking a bit weird on my small monitor, so went to change it, accidentally clicked on 1920x1080 (which it REALLY can't handle) and clicked don't save. NOW, my small monitor is stuck on a black screen. I've uninstalled/reinstalled the drivers, I've booted in safe mode, I've done everything I can possibly find online. When I booted it in safe mode, the large monitor was black screened but the small one worked fine, showing that there's nothing actually wrong with the monitor itself but something software related. Then I looked at advanced display settings and noticed that the 'active screen resolution' is stuck on 1920x1080 while the 'desktop resolution' is on whatever I set it to.
Now if anyone can PLEASE tell me how to change the active screen resolution to be something my monitor can handle I will love you forever.
