Display problem

[Gouki]

I keep getting the little cross saying my display definitions are too low ...!

I got the whole thing well done on my winnt.sif under Display!

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Does your display entry look something like this, and the video card must support the resolution.

[Display]    BitsPerPel=32

    Xresolution=1024

    YResolution=768

    Vrefresh=60

[Gouki]

Yep ... Just like that

Check out this page.

Then goto the Video Resolution Changer. I never tried it myself, but it should work!

[Display]

BitsPerPel = 32

Vrefresh = 60

Xresolution = 1024

Yresolution = 768

AutoConfirm=1

add the autoconfirm line to your winnt.sif, this might work

Ok ... even with the explanation on how to do in the unnatended site I dont get it! lol (I wish my native language was English)

Could you please explain to me how do I do it?

If you understand it, it is quite simple. I just downloaded the the file to test it.

Testing:

1. Download 1365Vidchng.zip to C:\

2. extract the file so that 1365VidChng.exe in C:\

3. go to start and choose run:

4 then type C:\1365VidChng.exe 1024x768x32@85 -q

1024x768x32@85 -q is/are the switches that you use. You could change this to any resolution.

5. Press enter, and your resolution will be changed

Unattended

1. Download 1365Vidchng.zip

2. extract the file, so that 1365VidChng.exe is in the $OEM$\$$\system32 folder (if this is the case you don't have to use a filepath anymore, you can just call 1365VidChng.exe)

3. put the commandline somewhere in the script that you use for your unattended:

In case of start.cmd:

Echo Changing the windows resolution
Echo please wait...
start /wait 1365VidChng.exe 1024x768x32@85 -q

in case of RunOnceEx.cmd:

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Changing resolution" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "1365VidChng.exe 1024x768x32@85 -q" /f

I hope that this makes it a bit more clear

I've experienced this on a few machines. It has always been due to not having the correct graphics card drivers slipstreamed into the XP setup disc.

Once I integrated the correct video drivers into $OEM$\$1\Drivers, the resolution settings in winnt.sif worked fine.
