Hello,
I booted up my pc today and suddenly had some trouble. I have a HD screen with 1920x1280 resolution, but for some reason its stuck on 640x480. I've tried changing it, but its greyed out. I'm no computer wiz, so I really have no idea what to do with this problem.
I've looked on the internet and saw that several people have had the same troubles and they all had different problems: broken VGi cable, graphics card troubles, monitor, etc. Some mentioned to update the drivers, but my drivers seem to be up to date (according to windows update).
Some relevant information:
-I have a Nvidia Geforce GTX770 graphics card
-When I turn off the pc my screen says 'going to power saving mode' (like it always does). That seems to be the right resolution.
-I have windows 10.
-My father and I built this pc ourselves around 14 months ago so the parts are quite new, the same goes for the screen. I haven't had any trouble up until now.
-I don't have a second screen to see if it works fine on that.
Solved! The problem was probably the Displayport and my stupidity. I connected the cables to the wrong outlet. Instead of the GPU, they were probably connected to the mothercoard.I reconnected the cables to the GPU: The displayport did not work, but the HDMI seems to be working fine.
