    Desktop resolution


    When I load Excel, though the desk top is crisp, the Excel panel is fuzzy (clearly wrong resolution set) When I load Google Earth it tells me that the "Desktop resolution is set to less than 1024X768.
    Under "Settings" the display is at 1920X1080 so what is wrong? Anyone have any ideas please?

    Hi James,

    Some changes in your desktop resolution can be an outcome of outdated graphics card drivers. That being said, updating, uninstalling, and reinstalling the graphics card drivers can be done to resolve this.

    Refer to this article:
    Update drivers in Windows 10     for the list of procedures on how you can successfully accomplish the above processes. These methods will help us identify the appropriate drivers to run in your system to prevent any issues that may arise while
    maximizing the performance of your graphics and display resolution.

    If the above instructions won't work, we highly advise getting and installing the most recent graphics card drivers from your manufacturer's website.

    We'll be waiting here for the update and result of your troubleshooting.
