Cah anyone help a non techie.

My kids (damn half term) have installed a new computer game today and my screen has been affected. I have very poor picture quality now (affects the enjoyment of thehun....)

Anyone know how to fix this please?

Ha ha. Mess up the little blighters entertainment, by uninstalling the programme. then find the CD and hide it somewhere they'll never find it. Then lock them in the coal shed with bread and water until Monday. Then move house.

They'll only do it once.

Cheers.

Before going down the reinstalling video drivers route, try the following:

-"minimise" everything

-choose an empty area of the desktop and click the right hand mouse button

-choose "Properties" from the list of options available to you.

-choose the rightermost (if that's a word!) tab which should be "Settings"

-now play with the "Screen resolution" scrollbar and the "Colour Quality" drop down menu to see if these improve things.

If not then I'd ask what operating system you are running. If XP it'll simply be a case of going back to a "restore point" before the little 'rascals' ruined your porn viewing experience......sorry.....ruined your enjoyment of the forum wink.gif

Edit: not liking the forum's winking smilie

-choose the top, right, tab which should be "Settings"

set the screen resolution to 800x66 by moving the slider to the left

and the colour quality to medium 16 bit

if you still cant fix it after that send me a message with your pc spec and when you last updated your video drivers and i will have a look

Thank you one and all, excluding the kind Doctor, for your help. Twas easy after all and the right click worked. Colours had been converted to 236 or similar.

Having used Macs for years, my PC causes great concern, it just aint comon sense, spent ages going through the control panel trying to work it out before using this as a last resort, obviously should have been the first port of call.

Cheers BB, Madger and Bradley in particular.

It's part of a family of "worms" I am sure entering W32 killer or similar in Google will find you some shareware/ freeware virus killers that will sort it for you. or try

www.myhq.com/public/f/r/freesoft/ it might have something.

Good luck :Wave: :Wave:
