Wrong Adjustments of Screen Resolution

• Master -_-

  I just maladjusted the wrong resolution of my other PC. And now, the PC is unaccessible because everything turned haywire. Blurry and feedback-like.
  How do i remedy it? Entered safe mode..but still the same...xp pro sp2

  He simply cranked up the resolutions till the monitor refused to show anything at all... wierd that Windows do not have that 15-second test dialog? Never trust Windows, so... go into Safe Mode (press F8 before the Windows startup logo shows), adjust your resolution (btw ndmmxiaomayi, sometimes the default is 800x600, 16/32-bit colour depends on config) and restart.

  So you can't undo the screen's resolution? If so, plug in a better monitor that supports the resolution ure having trouble with, and just undo after u come into the windows. Plug in back the original after.

  How I know. Now, is it you adjusted your system properties or you played with those buttons on the monitor? You never say clearly very hard to help.

  Ok, now can provide some solutions liao.
  
  Right click on your desktop and select Properties. Select the Settings tab. You will see a Screen Resolution box. Drag the slider to the resolution that you want. Also check your Color quality box. Select the one that suits you. Most of us are using either 32-bit or 16-bit.

  If still can't work, click on the Advanced button to access more settings
