How do I change my screen resolution back to normal?

I had it attached to two monitors, and I had found a screen resolution that worked pretty well between them, but I unplugged the external monitor. Now I can't find a screen resolution that works right for this one. Do I have to do a system restore? I have Vista. I have also tried it in the control panel.How do I change my screen resolution back to normal?
No you should not have to do a system restore, and I am not sure it would help in this case.



If you have not done so do a complete hardboot (turn everything off), and then try the display settings again.



Check the device manager and see if the de-installed monitor is still there, if so delete it.



If your adapter came with a utility try using it. Make sure your video card and if possible drivers are current. If windows update doesn't update them, check the manufacturers web site directly.

Right click on the desktop. Choose ';Personalize'; , go to ';Display Settings'; get the 1280 x 1024 setting and you should be fine.
