I can't get my resolution less than 640x480

[Zeferino]

I installed some new drivers for my SiS 530 onboard video card in my campaq presario 5184 with 188mb RAM and a Pentium II 300. Does anyone know what settings the new drivers changed so that i can't make my resolution smaller? i want to get to 400x300 if i can so that my game runs smoothly. thank you in advance.

I am pretty sure the lowest resolution possible is 640x480. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I have never seen a computer running at a lower resolution. Hope this helps!

cj is correct as far as I know. to get the lower resoloution you would have to use the in game options to tell it to use that setting

I agree totally. However, some games have a lower resolution in their settings.

 

[Zeferino]

ok, but i could get it in the game before... now i can't. you know what might be causing that?

Zef check on display properties for the refresh rate... make it default or optimize

If you can't resolve this, you can load <a href=http://hem.spray.se/doxx/> this </a>freeware program that allows you to set custom screen sizing settings.

BTW, be careful not to set the refresh rate above the specs of your video card and monitor.
