Stretched Display
Sorry, I don't know where this is supposed to be. So many boards on here!

Anyway, my laptop occasionally changes from normal screen to a stretched display when I close the lid and then open it again. It's like it doesn't refresh itself?

This is my current settings for display:


I have tried restarting, shutting down and rebooting and nothing is working. Help please?

I have a Dell Inspiron E1505 with Vistas Basic OS. Thanks in advance.

Hi PinkPineapple,

the only thing I can think of is to maybe unclick "Extend the desktop onto this monitor"

Can you post a screenshot of the Advanced Settings window and we can see if there are any clues in there...

How new is the Laptop?

regards

Steve
