I recently had to send in an RMA request to EVGA because something happened to my GTX 670, so now I'm stuck with my CPU's integrated graphics (Intel HD 3000), but I can't change my resolution to anything higher than 1280x1024.

I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium x64, I'm hooked up to a Samsung 32" LCD HDTV with a native 1920x1080 resolution via a DVI to HDMI cable.
The display looks all squished and horrible, please help. 🙁
 
I checked the windows update and saw that there was an intel hd 3000 drive under the optional updates, so I installed just that one and now everything is working properly.

I missed you, 1080p, don't ever leave me again.
 


I am glad you got your problems fixed. Sometimes updates from the windows updates work better. In the end, you fixed this problem yourself. lol
 


Now are you going to contact Intel on Monday? XD Now you can play some minecraft on low settings... :lol:
 
Nah, I don't need to anymore now that my problem is fixed.

Now I just need to wait for my replacement card from EVGA. Unless someone wants to send me $400 so I can buy a new one right now. 😛
 


That's cool. Enjoy your 1080p graphics!
