Still the resolution problem

[NukeDukeKoresh]

I live in 640x480 resolution now, 1 moth ago just changed and blocked in that value of resolution. I don't know what to do, already uninstalled controlers and all about video/screen and reinstalled. Doesn't worked. I can't play the games that i used to :c the life in 640x480 is hard, no one thinks about us, the 640x480 gamers. The resolution some days changes to the normal one, randomly. I understand nothing :'c

I really would like it if you'd learned how to edit your posts instead of spamming them one after another.

i think its long time ago we have seen system dont know better and thats why you cant get higher.

Primary Display Resolution: 640 x 480
Desktop Resolution: 640 x 480

i cant be 100% sure but its look like wrong identifyed monitor or worse case down this road. or cable issue , but even that still use 640* 480 so it look like wrong ini driver to monitor , and thats rare if it has worked before.

It's not a laptop, it's a CPU connected to a monitor
This is the monitor:

"tell windows default Driver what you have there" if you mean update drivers from windows devise manager i already did (many times) and have no new version avivable to install.

Actually it's an old monitor. Began to fail some weeks after i connected it for the first time to my CPU, so if you mean that hardware monitor it's wrong i believe that, that would explain why some times it works fine (pretty little times) and the anothers just doesn't. The cable and the CPU weren't changed, they worked perfectly for years and years.

Not sure how you came to that conclusion. I didn't miss it. I even said there is conflicting information.

Man, that thing is old. You may want to get something that is less ancient.
It's quite likely Windows can't properly identify the monitor and it's capabilities anymore.

What you could try is this:

There is a VGA graphics tool you can download. See if that helps. Otherwise, try a less crap monitor less than 10 years old having at least DVI.

Come on in my times we used this boxes

Comparing, this monitor it's like the last technology! And i'm not that old! D:

Jokes apart, thanks for the help <3 but is actually hard to make this monitor work? Because for the first weeks and even sometimes now it does. And i'm like "shouldn't be that hard make it permanent". Btw the Samsung helper says that monitor's driver is already installed so i think it's time to give up and try with another monitor :'u but with this economy...

You're talking to a guy who started on a PC like this:

So, yeah. I know what's old.

If you already installed the driver then see if you can set up a custom resolution in your AMD videodriver.
Set it to 1600x900 @ 60Hz which is the native resolution of your Samsung monitor.

Those old Monitor actual had menu with de-gaussing or reset to default or hold button in to reset to default, and No i did not waste my time on what you need to do, can you even reset it one way or other to see if that the issue here.

and just because i mention this dont make it a Solution its still GPU card and windows Driver that could be part of the problem and rest is reset Monitor back to default in top of this so yeah it cloud be that 3 ways Solution old Monitor Could Do.

Maybe Turing can help me, he played Battlefield V with the most realistic graphics on his ancient CPU if you know what i mean hahaha

ye tried the custom resolution before but it just doesn't allow it. I won't ask you for miracles, at least now i know where is the problem. Thanks again :D

Degaussing was something for CRTs, not the LCD monitor OP currently has. Don't throw away words without knowing what they actually mean:
