Screen Resolution is reduced and cannot be reverted - windows-7

I have a laptop(Sony Vaio VPCSA9e) (OS: Windows 7) and a monitor (LG W1945S). I used to connect the monitor to my laptop in 1440X900 screen resolution without any problem. (I connect it via VGA cable.)
But, somehow, when I now connect the monitor, the screen resolution is 1024X768 and I cannot change. I also recognized that "Device on VGA" is selected for display option instead of W1945 as before.
There are some problems similar to mine in the Internet and I have:
1) Updated graphics drivers
2) Updated monitor driver (I ensured that default screen resolution is 1440X900 in .ink file)
3) Tried with another VGA cable.
However, none of them didn't work. Do you have any suggestions ?

Okey, I solved the problem. It is due to VGA cable as pointed out prior questions. I was unlucky because my second VGA cable did not work. Bingo in third!

Citrix Receiver Resolution 4K on MacOS

I have a Retina screen MacBook Pro with a 15.6" 4K external monitor attached. I've discovered the resolution of the Citrix session is terrible unless I set the (MacOS) display resolution to 3840x2160, in which case the session resolution is perfect.
The trouble is at this setting, the resolution outside of the session, in MacOS is tiny - I usually have it set to scaled slightly larger. Without the external screen attached, the situation is the same with the default native display resolution resulting in very poor quality in the session.
Is there any solution where both the Citrix session and MacOS both look good?
defaults write com.citrix.receiver.nomas EnableHighDPI -bool YES
I have a Retina screen MacBook Pro with a 15.6" 4K external monitor attached.
According to Citrix they don't have a solution yet.
Prerequisites
To try out on individual MacBooks without enabling for the entire organization/store or if you do not want to whitelist LaunchDarkly on your internal network, you can run the following command in macOS Terminal
defaults write com.citrix.receiver.nomas EnableHighDPI -bool YES
Limitations
Supported devices: MacBook, MacBook Pro. Devices not supported: Mac mini, iMacs, Mac Pro.
No Multi monitor support. This feature will not work if you have connected a secondary monitor. Even if you don't use the secondary monitor with the Citrix Workspace app, simply connecting it will cause this feature to not be available. This feature works only when you use a single monitor for your device.

I tried it on my M1 Mac. After I disconnected the Thunderbolt dock with all peripherals the running session changed the resolution by itself to higher DPI. As soon as I connected an external monitor I was back to 1080p.

OBS - black screen while capturing display

I have a problem with OBS. I'd like to make tutorials how to do programming, teach people basics & show them, for example, how to write neural network in Java (without any ML libraries) but in order to do so, it would be great to show them my presentation about it and other windows, so recording full screen is needed (I know I could keep switching windows but it's faster and easier to display full screen). When I added the source "capture screen" the captured screen is black but audio works. I've tried to solve this problem and I went through many tutorials (like 15 or smth) and nothing has helped. I've also added a new thread in OBS Official Forum but nobody has responded. My OBS version is 25.0.4. Here is what I've tried:
- I ran the program as an administrator
- I have reinstalled it (with deleting all files and settings ~ no leftovers)
- In Nvidia Control Panel in 3D Settings I've selected OBS Studio and changed graphic processor to an integrated graphic (also tried dedicated graphic and global choice - nothing worked)
- In GForce Experience I disabled sharing
- Couple times I've restarted the computer and OBS (after any change I've done)
- I ran the OBS in compatibility mode with Windows 8 (and I've tried Windows build-in troubleshooting option)
- I ran OBS with an integrated graphic from a desktop
What I've discovered is the capturing specific window works perfectly, the problem occurs only with capturing full screen.
I have no idea what to do, please help me.
Here is what I see:
It looks like OBS just "can't see" screen, I use only one screen by the way
Black screen
though single-window capturing works perfectly

I had the same problem in the virtual machine And I solved it this way go to virtual machine setting
in display section uncheck Accelerate 3D graphics
The problem was solved and the recording was done correctly.

Windows iot LCD screen for raspberry pi

Please apart from the 7" LCD touch screen, which other lcd screen can work with raspberry pi using windows iot core operating system
It is recommended to use the screen device which is listed in the Hardware compatibility list. As mentioned in the document, this list is not exhaustive. There are many other peripherals not listed on this page that are compatible with Windows 10 IoT Core. You may try with other screen, maybe it is also compatible. If you just want to use a display screen without touch input, in general the screen with HDMI interface is usable.

Loss of Resolution using Display Port Adapter

I have a Laptop running Windows 7, set up to connect to two Asus Monitors.
My Laptop (Lenovo) only has one VGA and One Display Port.
When hooking up these monitors I must use a Display Port to VGA adapter. Both Monitors go to different KVM Switches which connect to the Monitors.
Monitor A. It appears that the Monitor connected through the display port adapter shows a generic name LCD_VGA and has a (recommended) resolution which is max of 1280X1024
Monitor B. The other monitor shows a correct name ASUS VS238 and a real (recommended) resolution of 1920X1080
When I switch cables say A = Display Port Adapter and B = Direct VGA the Resolutions Switch. A = 1920X1080 Max and B = 1280X1024 Max.
I have tried Detect under Screen Resolution, a Computer Reload, KVM Context Switches, Installing a new 1920X1080 Driver for the monitors, and Using Custom Resolution Via Nvidia Control Panel. None seem to work.
Is it possible the Display Port breaks the device information communications somehow? Any other hints?
you need to disclose what kvm switch(es) with your setup. Looks like your kvm switch(es) did not do the EDID emulation via the DDC communication between the KVM switch(es) and your connected system.
But for sure, it is EDID emulation issue.

lcd tv stopped working (dvi to hdim)

I have a dual monitor setup,
1: a computer monitor connected via vga
2: a samsung lcd tv conntected via dvi->hdim cable
Until yesterday, this setup was working just fine. Today when I booted windows 7, the bios & windows loading ... screen shows up fine on my lcd tv
however, when windows loads and shows my desktop, my TV goes blank, and I only get the desktop on my computer monitor.
When I go to "screen resolution" and "detect", I only see my computer monitor listed.
As far as I know, no new display drivers were installed, I am using nvadia gt300.
Also, since the bios/welcome screen does show up on my TV, I can root out the tv/cable being faulty.
has anyone encountered something similar before ?
I had exactly the same problem. I de- and reinstalled drivers, I deinstalled the 11/18 Windows Update, I turned my monitor off and on again at least a dozen times as did I unplug and replug the HDMI cable - nothing worked.
Then, in an act of despair, I unplugged my monitor's power cable, replugged it and.... here we go again!
HTH!
