  1. I cannot find resolution options in Advanced Display Settings on Windows 10


    I recently reinstalled my windows, and I noticed that my screen is a bit stretched out, making it a little blurry and grainy. However, when I tried to change the resolution, I found out that I was already at the top setting, out of ONLY TWO options, which was 1024 x 768, which is quite low compared to the resolution I had my laptop set on prior to re-installation. On googling, I was advised to try fiddling with the Advanced Display Settings. However, fruitlessly, instead of the option that changes the resolution, "Display Information" popped up that had basic info of my driver and current display settings. My driver is Microsoft Basic Display Adapter, which is currently classified as Display 1 in the Advanced Display Settings. Please help me, my laptop was perfectly fine before. I suspect that the Windows considers my laptop to have multiple displays, which is absolutely wrong. Kindly help me to readjust my display settings to its former glory.

    :)

    Where are the resolution/refresh rate settings in AMD Crimson?

    Having to use Windows display settings manager to change resolution. Advanced display settings shows the resolution but to change refresh rate i have to go to display adapter properties!

    It's just a longer step than it being right there one click away in CCC. Not only that but CCC is still there in Crimson if you use the advanced settings.
