Display Setting on PE too high after boot up

Post by prz42 »

My laptop is set to 2048 X 1152 on a 17" display screen.
The problem is when set in 1920 X 1080 in "Main Configuration" Win10PE SE it
ends up at 2560 X 1600 when PE is booted up. It is probably a driver issue,
but can't seem to find driver in double driver? Hopefully someone else has
dealt with this issue. :confused:

My video driver is Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics.
Maybe someone has the same video driver that has a solved the problem?

I think you're looking in the wrong place.
What is set in Project > Main Configuration > Screen Resolution ?
If there is any Auto, manually set the desired resolution.

When you wait for the full boot,
can you then change the resolution (to make the change) ?
If you can it means that SetRes is running too early (I guess SetRes is used).

As a temporary solution you might add custom StartUp SetRes.

You can also try another lower resolution and see ...

I notice something different than Winxpe or WinSE projects with the WimBuilder 2 version.

This made my screen look normal in size without any eye strain.

I found a plugin on XPE for display setting from KYHI. Converted it to Win10PESE.
Not to say that it could be improved after convertion as some times things get missed.
It did solve my display settings being to small.
