I can confirm, that screen resolution is problem.
Jimmy, I found Screeenres.zip on Xbase newsgroup and there is screenres.dll, but this thread is from 2007 year. Is this you mean and how use it ?

YES

Code: Select all

Procedure Main()
LOCAL nXRes := 0
LOCAL nYRes := 0
LOCAL nBits := 0
LOCAL nFreq := 0

   // Get the current settings (as Joe said, it might return Zero values)
   _GetDisplaySettings(NIL, @nXRes, @nYRes, @nBits, @nFreq)

   Alert('Current Resolution: ' + ;
      alltrim(str(nXRes)) + ' x ' + ;
      alltrim(str(nYRes)) + ' with ' + ;
      alltrim(str(nBits)) + ' bits for Colors, at ' + ;
      alltrim(str(nFreq)) + 'Hz', {'Resolution Change Test'})

   nXRes := 1600
   nYRes := 900
   nFreq := 60

   // Set the display temporarily to 800x600 fullscreen
   // using the original color and frequency settings

    _ChangeDisplaySettings(nXRes, nYRes, .t., nBits, nFreq)

    SLEEP(100)
*   Alert('Current Resolution: ' + ;
*      alltrim(str(nXRes)) + ' x ' + ;
*      alltrim(str(nYRes)) + ' with ' + ;
*      alltrim(str(nBits)) + ' bits for Colors, at a Frequenzy of ' + ;
*      alltrim(str(nFreq)) + 'Hz', 'Resolution Change Test')

   // Restore normal setting (optional, resets also at program termination)
    _ChangeDisplaySettings()
return

remember to use VIO ( not GUI ! ) Standalone App

There is a fix for this from Alaska, a new XPPUI1.DLL. Check your downloads at the Alaska site.

hi,

can't run you EXE while it is compile with Xbase++ v2.x so i try to recompile.
but it still does not run so i have to look deeper ... i come back when i have a Solution

[Auge_Ohr]

hi,

have found a ScreenRes.obj
here full Demo with OBJ, DLL

ScreenRes.zip

OBJ, DLL, PRG, XPJ

(27.48 KiB) Downloaded 819 times

remember : it MUST be VIO while GUI will not start !

[Victorio]

Jimmy, thank you very much,
with your screenres.obj demo now works.
without obj, if I understand I must include dll call

so now this help me to test, if this way can help with W10 problem.
I can't test it, because I have monitor only with 1680/1050

once again thanks for your time and help.
