Hi, I've just installed new HDD into my PC.
It is 1TB HDD, and I already had SSD in my pc.
When I installed HDD into PC and installed it on windows it changes my resolution.
My monitors resolution is 1360 x 768, and before installing hdd it says its recommended, now in recommendation is 1024 x 768,
Any fix?
 
If this is a brand name computer E.g. HP, Dell Et cetera could you supply the
Make, Model and serial number.
If this is not a brand name.
Could you supply the make and model of your motherboard

So you had both drives in the computer when you installed windows ?
If the original drive that worked is still in the computer what drive does it show as D: E: etc.

No i only had SSD, i ran out of storage space so i bought HDD and then i installed it, before buying hDD i did install windows on my ss drive.
 
When i set resolution of mine monitor i have black line on left side, size almost like taskbar and i cant move mouse on it.

I understand that you had ssd only.
You then put in a hdd.
When you installed windows on hdd was ssd still in computer?
Where is ssd now
Click to expand...
No, no.
Mine operating sistem is installed on SSD, i ran out of space on SSD (Wich windows is on) and then i bought and installed (phisically) new hdd for more storage.
 
Ok that should not affect your setup
it is only a second drive.
Right click on Start>Device manager
Click next to display adapter to expand
Right click on display adapter
