Designated_Driver Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Alright, so here's the scoop. My brother was downloading a video onto my computer. When he tried to play the video, the screen went black, and when it came back on, it was at a much lower resolution than I had it set at. Whenever I try to fix it, it brings me to the blue screen of death. I don't think the video had a virus, but it was supposedly "High Definition", which might have changed a setting on my computer so that it's incompatible with... something. I don't know. If anyone has any suggestions, or has dealt with something similar, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warpnow Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Update your video driver. That would be my first piece of advice. I would bet the software's settings somehow...plus you should update video drivers anyway, you will get better graphics because of advancements in software technology.
