Windows 10: Screen resolution recommended is saying 1920x1080 but it keeps reverting to 600x400 or...

Screen resolution recommended is saying 1920x1080 but it keeps reverting to 600x400 or something like that. It says something about driver integrity, but not sure what to do.

Resolution Issues - 3840x2160 Recommended, 1920x1080 Missing

Okay,

I've posted this issue with MSI and with NVidia, but when in doubt all configurations do tend to fall back on the operating system, which in this case is Windows 10 Pro.

I just got a 4K capable, VR ready gaming laptop. (MSI GT75 Titan-4k071 8RG) It is great, and gaming with it is phenomenal.

However, there is a weird behavior. It natively boots to the 3840x2160 resolution. That is the windows recommended resolution. However, I have found that the DPI compatibility issues between windows and many current software products makes it a bit unusable
for regular operations. From 640x480, to 1024x768, even unto 1920x1080 I have never had to adjust the DPI to anything but 100%, but the 4k super hi res is practically unreadable even in File Explorer. Perhaps this will adjust with time, as such things do
with all newer technology. But for now, most of the applications I use act very volatile when using the DPI settings of 200% to make the screen readable, even with recommended Windows "Compatibility" in operation. When I want to play a game in the higher
4k res, no problem, but for everyday use, logging into work, writing code, and so on, I quite prefer the 1920x1080 resolution.

That's where the issue arises. When I boot up the laptop, that resolution is not present. I have available to me 3840x2160, 1900x1440, 1900x1200, and then 1680x1050 and lower resolutions. But not 1920x1080.

The moment I plug my HDTV into the external HDMI port for dual monitors - an HDTV which natively supports 1920x1080 and can go no higher - the system automatically recognizes it, and the 1920x1080 resolution suddenly becomes available for
both monitors. Once I disconnect the TV, however, the 1920x1080 resolution disappears again, and my laptop monitor reverts to the 3840x2160 resolution.

This seems extremely odd. If it can support the resolution with the TV plugged in to the HDMI port, it should be able to support it when the TV isn't plugged in.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

Laptop Screen Resolution Windows 10

Hi,

We suggest you to update the Display Adapter Drivers.

Step 1: Update the Display Adapter driver.

• Press Windows key + X key when you are at desktop.
• Select Device Manager.
• Expand Display Adapter.
• Right on the Display Adapter and click on Update driver software.

Refer to: How to: Install and Update drivers in Windows
10

Step 2: Kindly follow the below steps to change the resolution of the screen and check:

• 
  Type Change screen resolution in the Search box from the desktop.
  
• 
  Under Resolution search for the Recommended resolution and click on Apply.
  
• 
  A windows pops up saying "Keep these display settings", then select Keep changes.
  

There will be a recommended resolution for all the computers, and if you select more than the recommended resolution the screen would not support for that.



Hope this helps. Feel free to contact us for any further issues on Windows. We will be happy to help you.
