Ok on my other computer i set the resolution to like 1280x1000 or w/e it is. Well it asked me to restart before it would take effect and now everytime i start the computer it goes thorugh the normal startup but right before windows begins where you can select which use you wish to be my screen goes black and a blue box pops up saying that monitor resolution needs to be set lower. I dont knwo what to do now. If anyone can help me on this i will appreciate it. I just need to know if there are any other ways for me to change the resolution without actually going into the computers main screen. Like in the bios or something.

Press F8 after the POST-Screen (the screen where your cpu speed and memory is shown, right before windows boots) and select "Safe Mode".
This will boot Windows in Safe Mode. HeyHo you should be able to change the Resolution now, cause Safe Mode boots up in a lower resolution then the Normal Mode.
