Mode not supported on Samsung TV after new desktop hard drive installed

Nothing can be done, if TV do not have supported resolution.

First make sure the computer is correctly connected to the TV. Once you are sure the connection is okay. You will need to use the following key combination to configure the settings:
Windows Key + P.
You may use the setting that suits your needs. Please note duplicating the displays might not be a good option if your PC monitor doesn't support the maximum resolution your TV can support or vice versa.

Hey Tim,.
Once you installed Windows 7 onto the hard drive you would need to have installed the drivers. The one driver that is needed for resolution is the video card.You can right click on the desktop and then choose screen ressolution to see if you can change the resolution. Unfortunately, Dell does not have any Windows 7 drivers for the Dimension 2350 system.

Thank You,

VGA MODE NOT SUPPORTED, usually will meanthat the resolution your laptop was sending to the monitor wasnt supported.

this can be fixed with it plugged in and using the laptop display. you shoudl be able to chenge display properties and apply a different resolution to each screen.


system not fully installed is an interesting one. does it do this all teh time when you reboot now? with or without the monitor connected?

Most probably your computer has a higher resolution or refresh frequencies set in Desktop Settings than supported by the monitor. It might be also, that you have previously installed a monitor driver for a different monitor model, and the computer is using resolutions and frequencies supported by that previous monitor, with which your new one can't cope.
The solution would be to boot the computer in safe mode (hit F8 key when the computer is starting, you can hit it a couple of times, until you see a menu; choose "Safe Mode" and hit Enter).
Go to Desktop Properties, change to Settings tab, and click "Advanced" button. In the new window choose "Monitor" tab and change the monitor to "Plug and Play monitor". Click OK to accept the settings and close both windows.
Now reboot the computer - it should start with a rather low resolution, but the picture should be visible. Now you have to go to your Desktop Settings again, Advanced tab, and move the resolution slider to position 1280x1024. Accept and enjoy.
If the computer still doesn't boot, go to safe mode again, go to Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager, drill down to Monitors, and delete all the monitor devices installed. After a reboot, system should start up and find new hardware, and install Plug and Play monitor. Set the optimum resolution of 1280x1024 as written before.

Hi,

While booting press F8 , Go to safe mode and change the screen resolution and reboot the system.

Hope this helps

Hello,

Please set the output resolution of the Laptop to something within the range of the TV.

On the laptop desktop, change the "settings" of the 2nd monitor to 1024 x 768.

You should then get a picture, once you have the picture you can increase the resolution to the one you want.

If you have the TV manual you can check and see what it will accept.

Thanks

install the video drivers - http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&ServiceTag=&SystemID=DIM_PNT_P4_CEL_2400&os=WW1&osl=en&catid=&impid

and after that try to change the resolution

If helped rate fixya

Hi, boot up to an F8 and select safe mode. While there change your screen settings to 800X600.

The available resolutions in the windows operating system has to be compatble with the TV screen you are hooked up to. try lower settings first.
Thank you and god luck.

Try changing your computers resolution to something much lower. Mode Not Supported is usually an error regarding the Display Resolution of the video card being set higher than the monitor is capable of handling.
