And... Saturday, February 6, 2010 at 11:26 am Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by C K (6910 messages posted) There is no software driver loaded when the computer is P.O.S.T.ing or when you are in the function starting screens. The resolution is hardware based so that's why it can't be changed. Only after Windows applies the driver, is the video and video options controlled through software. At some point, maybe the video device manufactures will make wide screen P.O.S.T screens the norm when a specification is set, but it hasn't happened yet. The VGA mode option when starting from the Windows F menu loads a generic VGA driver to recover from a defective/wrong/incorrect driver from the last time Windows ran. If your LCD TV can't display in that mode, then it is incompatible with your computer when it is booting up and at the Windows startup option screen.
