    Computer lags out when changing resolution in game


    Whenever I play a game and I change the resolution to anything other than what my native resolution is on my monitor 1920x1080, the audio completely messes up and I keep freezing for 5-10 minutes. This problem only occurs when I have my external 1080p monitor plugged into my laptop.

    Whenever I would have to tab out/back in this problem would happen again and I would be lagging for another 5-10 minutes. I tried changing the resolution of my monitor through the Intel HD Graphics Control Panel to the same resolution as what I wanted in the game but it didn't work. When I change the resolution in full screen games when I don't have my monitor connected this problem doesn't occur.


    Thank you,


    Leo

  2. Resolution and lag

    Hello people of Microsoft.

    I can't change the resolution of my screen. The text is grey and nothing happens if I click on it.

    It is stuck on 1920 x 1080. I know it's suggested but I used to have it bigger.

    Also, I am experiencing heavy lag on games like Terraria, which used to be lagless a while ago.

    The lag made the game unplayable with 4 fps or something around that.

    It might be the new Windows update, but I don't know what exactly could've changed.

    If you need my PC specs, just ask me Computer lags out when changing resolution in game :)

  3. Card games lagging!

    Hi Helena,

    If it's an online game, the lag issue may have been caused by your Internet connection. It can also occur due to the game server issue. We'll need to gather a bit more information to better identify what's causing this. Kindly answer the following:

    • Have you made any changes prior to this issue?
    • What card game are you having issues with?
    • Is the issue the same with other games?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far to resolve the issue?

    Meanwhile, if the card game you're playing is downloaded from Windows Store, we suggest running the
    Windows apps troubleshooter. The apps troubleshooter can help resolve issues with games and applications downloaded from Windows Store.

    Regards.
