this happened to me...you donot need a new monitor simply run the computer in safe mode by pressing F8 at the startup screen (manufactor's logo) and choosing safe mode...then do a system restore to before you changed the resolution by going to start>all programs>accesories>system tools>system restore

your moniter likes the resolution it keeps resetting to instead of the one you set it at

NOPE.... your pc has a good specification, you have a built in video card right? its happen because the screen size you want is not compatible to your hard or they didnt match, try to download another driver for your vga, check the windows update and update your video driver. and if not try to lower your resolution.

Driver issue, there is not a correct driver for this and WinXP is forced to use default drivers which do not have the correct resolution. The solution is to use PowerStrip to force the monitor to recognize a correct resolution.\nSee the link below.

If it is an older monitor, your picture tube may have gone bad (if so, you might as well throw it away), if it is new, i would supect the cble connecting the monitor and the computer is dammaged, or the connector at the end. Other than that, unless you have electronics expirience, thier is probably nothing inside it that is broken, that you could fix.

Probably because your screen resolution is different\n\ngo to your desktop\n\nright click in the space and click properties\n\nclick the last tab\n\nresize your screen to 1076x 800\nor 800 by 600

Try changing your display settings.\nStart, control panel, display, settings, then pick your screen resolution. Largest is 800 x 600. \nHope this helps, and I will look for more options.\nGary

You can change your screen resolution so you see everything....go to your desktop..right click..select properties....select settings tab...Slide screen resolution from 800x600 to 1024x768 pixels and apply.\n\nHope this helps

if you increase the number of displaying pixels, everything will be small surely. you can do nothing to stop it because it is the configuration of the computer. even if you bought a new LCD, it would be just like that

If you have experience in installing/reinstalling video drivers in safe mode, do so.\n\nAlternatively, if you do not like reinstalling video drivers, and you or one of your neighbors have a different monitor, try to plug it in, boot normally and if it works OK with resolution you have now, you can change resolution to settings acceptable for your 1st monitor.

go to device manager from control panel, control panel>system>device manager>display adapters and either rinstall driver or rollback driver. If that doesn't fix it, the in graphics properties, change you monitor driver to plug and play. that should fix you up, if not, email me if you find any other problems and I can talk u through them

I'm assuming you right-clicked on your desktop and did Properties, then went to the Settings tab and tried to change the slider for the resolution?  If you do know how to change the resolution which I think you do, then have you installed the proper drivers for your graphics card?  You should be able to grab them from the manufactures website.  How long as your resolution been stuck at 640x480?  Just curious if you recently reinstalled Windows, or what might have caused it.
