Measuring screen resolution?

My monitor resolution is set as 1280x800. Is it possible that different size monitor can have same resolution ? If yes, then will it make the image less clear for the bigger screen ? How do I know, what resolution shall I keep in order to see image properly ?

When we change the resolution of the screen, how does it change physically on the screen ?

I mean, screen has 1280x800 pixels i.e. thats the fixed hardware part. Now , when I change resolution from the properties, how will it change the physical property of screen ? Is it the video card which is responsible for resolution or is the screen itself ?Measuring screen resolution?
Yes a bigger monitor may be capable of running at the same resolution and yes it wont be as sharp. These numbers are the number of dots vertically and horizontally on your screen. I.E., if you are running at 1280 by 800, the rows going across have 1280 dots or pixels, the row going down has 800 dots or pixels. Multiply the 1280 by 800 and you will get the total number of pixels on your screen. As you can see, the higher the resolution, the more pixels and therefore the sharper the picture.Measuring screen resolution?
if when you change resolutions, the monitor stays completely filled it means your monitor is stretching the video to use all of the pixels.



if it doesn't than the image you are seeing is exactly the resolution you picked.



im 95% of the cases, it is the monitor that affects the resolution and only if you plug a super low end computer into a large monitor will that switch
dont really get what you mean but screen resolution is dependent on your monitor capacity... the video card just manages the output depending on your what resolution you set.



but to get best display you must set your monitor to max resolution always... because if you have a 1280x800 max resolution and you set it to 1024x768

you will get a stretched display ...
Yes, a monitor of a different size can have the same resolution, but by definition it will have a different dot or pixel pitch (size or amount of space between each pixel). For example, there's 720p HDTVs that are 19 inches, and there's 720p HDTVs that are 50 inches. Same resolution, very different size; on the larger sets you can see the fine detail more clearly, although that means you're also more likely to see individual pixels (not as realistic looking). LCD monitors have native resolutions at which you should display for best results.

By changing the resolution, the video card outputs a different resolution, different video processing and what not. If it's a CRT monitor, it will accept this signal and display it as is, and yes it will actually be doing a different task mechanically so to speak with how the electron beam is aimed and timed. If it's a LCD monitor, it will first convert that signal to its native resolution, then display it as it would any other resolution (though of course it won't look exactly perfect if it's not at its native resolution).

Why did my screen resolution randomly change?

I was using my computer which has a resolution of 1680x1050 and I turned it off. When I turned it back on again it had changed to 1024x768. I am running Vista and have gone into the display settings, but I can only set it to 800x600 or 1024x768. There are no other options. I have re-installed the NVIDIA drivers and that made no difference.



As far as I know, there have been no changes to my computer between uses. Have you got any ideas on how I could fix the problem?



Thanks!Why did my screen resolution randomly change?
Instead of just reinstalling the nvidia drivers over the old ones I would suggest using drivercleaner in safe mode and removing the nvidia drivers completely. Then running the nvidia installation again.

You should be able to change resolution in game options.

If not the file you are looking for is video.con and you can open it with notepad. Change the resolution line to 800x600@60Hz and then you should be able to adjust it in game options.

How can I get videos to work that require a higher resolution?

Most matroska and mp4 files on my computer only require 704 x 400 resolution. But, there are a few videos that state they require 1280 x 720 and when I try to play these videos, my screen kinda crashes, even if I change my screen resolution to the required size. Has anyone else had similiar problems? Because i'd like to know a way to play these certain files. Thanks in advance.How can I get videos to work that require a higher resolution?

Changing screen resloution.?

To watch some online streaming videos in a larger mode, I need to change the screen resolution to 280 by 1024 . (reccomended by the moderators)



The reason I want to change it is because some videos are way too large being cut off so I can't see a few centimeters or three.



I have a 16 inch widescreen laptop.



With my little knowledge of changing screen resolution, the max I have is 1280 by 800 which I am using.



Can anyone tell me how to change it? ...or will it destroy my screen which the moderator said might happen?Changing screen resloution.?
right click on the background on your screen. go to the last option which would be properties or personilize. If its vista go to display settings. and the screen resolution will be right there.Changing screen resloution.?
