So how do know how high i should put my resolution to where those words don't appear on my computer screen.How Can I Tell How High My Screen Resolution Should Be?
Screen Resolution is often limited by your monitor and the refresh rate usually by your video card. The best way to find your screen resolution is by looking at your display properties in control panel, in case your monitor is a plug and play one. If your monitor is an old one, you should try increasing your resolution in slow increments until the screen goes blank or too blurred to be legible.
When your screen goes blank in such a case, do not touch any keys or move your mouse, windows will automatically restore your last settings in 15 seconds.How Can I Tell How High My Screen Resolution Should Be?
