Hello all.

If I start windows in safe mode it says my resolution is out of range (1280x1024 or something on my 1024x756) However on normal mode it is fine. I have searched for how to fix this but all the results were for the opposite problem of out of range on normal. I need to use safe mode for another problem of mine.

Can anybody tell me how I can change the safe mode resolution please?

Yes I did. I started with VGA, and it works, but that isn't safe mode right?

Resolution cannot be changed in safe mode, everything is on a default.

If you cannot see anything this is because you monitor doesn't support the safe mode res, basically if you have another monitor use that.

Yeah, It used to be on the default. One time I set my resolution out of range and a local computer shop fixed it, but it seems it has changed my safe mode too. Oh well, thanks for the help anyway.
