Monitor Resolution After XP Reinstall
I did a Windows reinstall (XP Pro Sp1 on my DIM 2400) recently. During the reinstall it
asked for the Intel chipset drivers. I didn't have them at the time so I cancelled thru 3 or 4 of these
messages. Afterward I downloaded these from Intels site and installed them. I installed the latest
driver versions.
The problem: The monitor resolution is different that what it was before. I basically have two
choices. One is a very low resolution choice that clips off much of the desktop and the menus. The other is very small (I think its 1024 * 768). In this mode, the wallpaper that is selected is kind of scrunched and shows more than once.
What did I do wrong?

Ok, thanks I will try that.- I reinstalled XP as well and am having the same trouble with screen resolution. I have reinstalled the chipset drivers and have tried to reinstall the monitor drivers. All of these installations prompt me to go to Display Settings-> Properties-->Settings--> Advanced--> Monitor tab and click on Properties there to update the driver. my problem is that the Properties button in the Monitor tab is greyed out, and won't allow me to click on it. Please help!
