joanie707 Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Hello all, It has been awhile since I visited this forum, but if I need help this is the first place I check, as I nost usually get a good answer, My problem just started a couple days ago, while playing Zygna games and other games on Facebook. As near as U can find out noone else has experienced this on FB, or the games. When I want to go to full sceen, which is usually what I do, it presents in a balck & white format, on approx. 3/4 of the screen, nothing is in proportion, and it is not really a true balck & white. In the small screen everything is ok and seems to work fine. I thought perhaps my adobe flash player was at fault so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it but that made no difference. I ran Norton, CCleaner but again it still does this. It only does it when I am on line. I recently had hi-def TV cable put in by the same company that does my internet (Comcast). I would really appreciate any suggestions andyone might have as I did all I know to try to fix it. Thanks all ;-}[/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhawk Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 If I recall correctly switching to full screen mode causes the graphics card to switch to a lower resolution. It's possible the video mode used for full screen isn't compatible with your monitor. Richard S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanie707 Posted October 2, 2010 Author Share Posted October 2, 2010 Hi Redhawk----It has always worked fine until it started this a day or so ago--could it be a setting that somehow was changed??? I will check my settings but most likely I will not know what I am looking at. The thing being it is only when I am on the net that I have this problem. If I go full screen on a game I have on my computer it does not do that. Thank you for your reply, I hope this answer may help some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanie707 Posted October 4, 2010 Author Share Posted October 4, 2010 I found the answer to this problem on my own---much to my surprise!!! The day before this problem occured I did download several windows updates, along with a couple optional ones. I recalled downloading one that was for my graphics program, Navidia. It turned out to be a driver and it was the culprit so I rolled it back and bawala!!!! It works as it should. Just thought I would let every one know, should they encounter this problem. Thank you ;-} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
