Switching resolution to 640x480


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I'm trying WPI for the first time. It seems to be a great tool !

Here is my question :

Is there a simple way to force the resolution to 640x480 ?

I tried to force it in the sizer() function of api.js : it works, but the display is truncated... :huh:

Thank you for your help !

Edit wpi.cmd with notepad and replace

this line

REM Force resolution to needed size for wpi interface.

start %wpipath%\Tools\VideoChanger.exe 1280x1024x32@72 -q

to

REM Force resolution to needed size for wpi interface.

start %wpipath%\Tools\VideoChanger.exe 640x800x32@72 -q

This will adjust the resoloution everytime WPI is launched, remember to open wpi.cmd and not wpi.hta

Why 640 ? use 800 instead no problem with var resolution = 800 in your useroptions.js ...

I launch WPI for a w2000 install, the default resolution of w2000 during install is 640x480 (maybe it's 800x600 in XP ?)

I don't want to solve problems of video drivers during unattended install, I mean : what if the drivers don't install correctly ? I won't be able to switch to 800x600... (am I wrong ?)

So I prefer running WPI in a "compatible mode" so that it doesn't care wether the video driver is istalled or not... ths mean 640x480

I think you meant

[...] VideoChanger.exe 640x480 [...]

But thanks I'll try it !

In fact I've managed to run WPI in 640x480, but the problem is that the Exit button (Glossy Theme) is no longer visible...

I think I'm going to create my own "640x480 compatible" theme...

Thank you.
