I have a display problem with my T21. It was working OK when I turned it off but the next time it started there was a black band along the top and down the left side and the windows taskbar had disappeared off the bottom somewhere. I found that by changing the resolution to 1400x1050 the black bands disappeared but the taskbar was still off the bottom somewhere.
After trawling through all the various setting windows I have come to the conclusion that the LCD has reconfigured itself to 1400x1050 and with the resolution set to 1024x768 then the black bands were part of the border around the desktop which was set up in the centre of the display.
The problem is that my display IS 1024x768 according to the model number but I can find no way of changing the 1400x1050 which shows up under the LCD resolution in the monitor properties window.
I have played about with the dual monitor settings and I have looked in the bios and tried removing and re-installing the graphics driver but with no joy. In fact, when I tried re-installing the Savage driver the installation failed saying that the AGP device couldn't be found. Despite the re-installation failing, the display properties shows that a savage drive IS installed. I wonder where it came from.
I am becoming desparate enough to format the drive and install Windows 98SE instead of XP Pro which I am using at the moment but I have a feeling that this wouldn't solve the problem.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
