Computer Monitor Issue

[Aurelias Kazaar]

Okay I recently changed the settings on my display from 1024 X whatever to 1152 X 840. When I tried to switch back to 1024, the display on my screen basically 'shook' and 'warbled' (for lack of a better term). I can change it to the 860 display without a problem but the 1024 is still an issue. I tried restarting, Windows troubleshooting, etc but no luck.

Any suggestions?

If it's a tube screen, try changing the refresh rate.

And if that doesn't work?

And if that doesn't work?

In my experience, it will work

[Morgan Evanar]

It should. Try 75 and then 85 hz.

I ended up setting all the way down to 60 and it worked (somehow). Originally, the only choices I had were 75 and 85 and the monitor didn't like 85 (it would shut off).

It is a six-year-old monitor so that could be part of the problem.

That's odd o_O

What brand of monitor is it?

I've still got that old black behemoth Toshiba, and it works just fine on any resolution I feel like. Had it for 8 years now and not a problem.

Yeah but that behemoth was hardcore. Anyway, it's a ViewSonic A70f+. It's just being temperamental I guess.
