    Hello! The issue for my monitor is that it is showing 'Invalid Format'. I've been using my Computer for 2 years with the current resolution "1152 x 864" and I curiously changed the resolution to higher one just to check. When I changed it to 2000+ something, I was still able to revert it so I thought it was okay to try since I want something that can make my experience better. I tried the 1900 x something, and there I wasn't able to revert it anymore and my screen is showing Invalid Format I don't know what's on my screen anymore. I already tried to hard shutdown my CPU until it shows the Au

    TV showing invalid format with HDMI cable.

    Hi Raj,

    Conflicts with the screen resolution when you connect the laptop to a TV is one of the possible reasons why you are having the invalid format message. For us to assist you better, kindly answer the questions below:

    • Have you made any changes to your laptop prior to this issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
    • Which version and OS build number of Windows 10 is currently installed? To check, press the
      Windows key, type winver, and press the
      Enter
      key.

    Meanwhile, you can try changing the resolution of the screen to a lower resolution and check if you will still encounter the same issue. You can follow the steps in this

    link
    to change the screen resolution.

    We'll be looking forward to your response.
     
  3. N73 - Changing Contact Display Format

    I have a Nokia Nseries 73.



    I have been trying to change my contact list format to show the names AND numbers. I do not know how to do this. All of my other Nokia handsets have been able to do this with no problems.



    Any suggestions?



    Thanks in advance!

    Changing Time Format

    Hi Mary,

    There's a possibility that the set up time format in your computer Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) is military time. To have this checked, you can try to reset the time of your computer through Control Panel. See the steps below on how to do
    so:

    • Open Control Panel > Clock, Language, and Region >
      Change date, time, or number formats. This would open the
      Region
      window.
    • From there, click on Additional settings at the bottom part. It will open the Customize Format.
    • Click Reset; then, OK.

    The steps should work; however, if not, we suggest that you contact manufacturer and have the BIOS time checked.

    Let us know what happens after doing the suggestions .
