OpenVPN changed my screen resolution to 640x480

Post by whatever111 » Sun Jul 01, 2012 5:08 am

Hey guys, I'm having this problem where whenever I launch the OpenVPN GUI, connecting or disconnecting to a server, My screen resolution will automatically be changed to 640x480 from 1920x1080 and I will have to manually change it back each time.

I'm using Asus G55vw, Window 7 home premium 64bits if this help.

Thank you for taking your time to read this topic.

I've never heard of this before, nor ever seen it; googling around found a similar link

when the openvpn gui launches it will want to get elevated privileges; it seems that this can cause problems sometimes with older display drivers. It is NOT an OpenVPN issue.
