    Hey all, came home from work today, booted up my I9300, and found the resolution was stuck in 1024x768. :confused: I now only have the option of reverting back to 800x600 in my display settings. Hopefully someone can chime in and help me recover my old 1440x900 screen resolution, thanks in advance.

    Well if the option was there before I would try to reinstall the video drivers, but first uninstall them completely.

    Reverted drivers to some older ones i had earlier, and temporarily fixed the problem. Got stuck again, installed the drivers I initially had trouble with, and problem has yet to come back. :cool:
