    Exclamation Dell Studio 1555

    Does ANYONE know how to increase the resolution on the machine from 800 x 600? I'm using Intrepid, FWIW. It does not have an ATI graphics card; rather, an Intel one. No matter what I try, I cannot get the display to increase beyond 800 X 600.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

    Have you tried using the Display tool to change the resolution?

    Are the Intel drivers definitly loaded? Check the Restricted Drivers menu item (I think that's what it's still called) and see if there's anything that's been detected but not automatically installed.

    I would say make sure your drivers are up to date and working.

    My drivers are up-to-date. There is no way to choose beyond 800X600. I'm truly at a loss. Anyone?
