  1. Windows 10 on a newer Dell Laptop suddenly is no longer a full screen but appears as a square


    Out of the blue my Windows 10/Dell laptop suddenly lost its full screen display. The entirety of Windows or any app now appears as a square taking up most of the height of the screen, but only about the center 2/3 of the screen, in the shape of a square. I attempted to fix this by changing resolution settings but that did not fix the problem. This is maddening.

    I would like suggestions and look in local stores. I dont wanna buy a laptop from someone online. Sorry. But could be a good idea if you asked him about the performance on older games. Gonna make a list ofall laptops people suggest me.

    Remove the screen for space purpose here its small desk and if the screen is opened it will hide my 22 inches lcd

  3. Dell Inspiron laptop Windows 10 stuck on Dell logo screen!!!!

    I have a Dell Inspiron laptop Windows 10 and it won't advance past the Dell logo screen. The computer turns on, the Dell logo appears for a few seconds, then the screen goes black, and then it does it all over again......the Dell logo appears, and screen
    turns black...and on and on.......

    I checked a few other forums and removed the battery, removed the power cable, held the power button down, powered it back on, it didn't work. I did a system diagnostic check and it came back good, with no problems.

    Help!! Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance,

    Todd
