1 Check Drivers

The drivers for your graphics card are essential for communication between your computer's operating system and the hardware. If these drivers are outdated or corrupt, your screen resolution might change unexpectedly. To address this, access your computer's Device Manager, locate the display adapters section, and check for any available updates for your graphics card drivers. If updates are found, install them and restart your computer to see if the resolution stabilizes.

Had this a few times at the schools we try to stick with one make so Dell has won for us. Make sure Dell driver update is installed and up to date should sort any problems with video.

I would suspect chip creep, as often computer get moved around and sometimes connections of components become dislodged.There are an abundance of parts that may become partially disconnected. opwer supply to the board, snap ine lke video cards and memory chips often slowly creep out of their connections. an occasional check of connections is necessary to determine if one or several components become loose. Video cards, often come lose and can cause changes in the video aspect. So too the age of the device producing video and possible failure may be causing a difference in video reproduction.

When these type of issues arise I always check for driver updates, it is the easiest and fastest procedure to do first. It is important to make sure drivers, and software in general, are always kept up to date and OS patches are applied as available.

2 Monitor Settings

Your monitor has its own settings that can affect resolution. It's possible that an accidental button press or automatic configuration change has altered these settings. Consult your monitor's manual to navigate its on-screen display menu and ensure that the resolution is set to the monitor's native resolution. This is the resolution at which the display is designed to operate best, providing clear and stable visuals.

Check your drivers and make sure you have your windows or Apple drivers updated. For an additional monitor, be sure that your device has the compatibility of working for both devices. As for the monitor settings, right click your desktop screen to make sure that your extra monitor(s) are identified and correct the resolution to how your monitor is placed, whether it's horizontal or vertical. To do so, you'd have enter the display settings and if all monitors you want to have added are visible and identifiable, you'll want to go to advanced settings on the display manager you've opened up.

3 System Restore

If your resolution issues began after installing new software or a system update, a system restore could reverse the problem. This process will revert your system to a previous state where the resolution was stable. Go into your system settings, find the system restore option, and select a restore point before the issue started. Keep in mind that this will remove any programs installed after the chosen restore point.

4 Graphics Software

Sometimes, the software that manages your graphics settings can override your system preferences. Open the graphics control panel provided by your graphics card manufacturer, which is usually accessible by right-clicking on your desktop. From there, ensure that the resolution settings match your desired configuration. Also, look for any automatic or adaptive resolution features that might be causing the issue and disable them if necessary.

5 Hardware Check

Hardware issues can also cause resolution changes. Check all cables connected to your monitor and computer for secure connections. Loose or damaged cables can lead to poor signal transmission, which might result in resolution fluctuations. Additionally, inspect your monitor and graphics card for any signs of damage or failure. If you suspect hardware is at fault, you may need to replace the problematic component.

6 User Profiles

If multiple people use the computer, different user profiles might have different resolution settings. When switching between users, the resolution could change to match each profile's preferences. To fix this, log into each user account and manually set the screen resolution to be the same across all profiles. This ensures a consistent display regardless of who is logged in.
