If it still applies, did you hit the Fn+F7 button to get it back to LCD
only? Sounds like it may have been set to dual display, which will drop the
internal res.

Are you using multiple monitors? I've seen oddness similar to that on

changed to 640x480, 4 bit color. Going into screen properties, I changed
it back to
high resolution, 32 bit color, but it wouldn't change. And the screen
still thought it
was at the high resolution because only a little bit of the screen could
be seen (i.e., a
640x480 chunk out of the high resolution).

there on a regular log in (safe mode seemed ok). Reloaded the video
driver. Deleted
the video devices and let it reboot and find them. Reinitialized the
BIOS. Nothing
fixed it.
