Yes No. Sorry this didn’t help. On my laptop, when cant change resolution in games change the resolution under display settings, lets say i change it to x from x native. Then when i go to advanced display settings, my desktop and active signal resolution is still saying x even tho i just changed it to x in the previous menu.
