    Resolution/off edge with projector.


    I couldn't figure this one out quickly but also haven't thought of a solution since, so I figured I'd ask around. I was attempting to swap out a Mac for a PC brand new Win 11 machine that needs to output to a projector. The Mac had a second monitor set to 1024x768 which is what the unfortunately old projector requires and it worked just fine. On the new machine it looks great except it simply cuts off the last 20% or so of the screen even though it's once again set to 1024x768. It's great on the monitor which I set to have mirror with the projector using different outputs. That's the on

    Reverting Screen Resolution after disconnecting projector

    Hi Jimmy,

    Based on your description of the issue regarding your desktop's resolution after unplugging your projector, there's a possibility that your
    graphic's card driver is outdated. To troubleshoot this issue, we suggest
    checking updates in Windows 10 and see if the same issue will occur the next time you disconnect your projector. To do this, simply follow the steps in this

    article    .

    Regards.

    Reverting Screen Resolution after disconnecting projector

    I have an ACER ASPIRE 5532 laptop running Windows 10. I recently connected a projector to it, didn't have any trouble connecting. However, I cannot return to my original screen resolution. The screen appears to be stretched a bit. Only two options for
    resolution 800x600 or 1024x768, both are larger than desired and not what I had prior to connecting the projector. I have tried the SETTINGS/DISPLAY/RESOLUTION and Fn/F5 key, no help. Any suggestions?

    Resolution/off edge with projector.

    Projector resolution does not match laptop resolution

    I have a Vivitek D832MX projector that I have been using fine with a windows 8 laptop. I just purchased a windows 10 laptop, and the projector resolution is not as high as the laptop resolution. I have tried both "Extend" and "Duplicate" in the monitor
    settings but it doesn't want to go higher than a very low resolution on the projector. The laptop resolution is crystal clear. Apparently the projector is not compatible with Windows 10. Any ideas?
