Screen Resolution Change forced by MagicJack Bootup

Post by KGE_Gulfport »

When MJ boots up within Windows Vista, my screen flashes several times, and ends up by reducing my resolution. This does not happen under Windows 7.

As soon as I end the MJ application through the Windows Task Manager, my screen resolution returns to normal.

Is anyone experiencing the same symptoms under Windows Vista? I just received a replacement MJ, and this is one unique thing that has just started to happen. My older MJ, which suddenly died, never cause this problem.

Hope someone has a solution to resolve this issue. HELP!

Hey Folks!

Well, for some unknown reason, MJ changes my video resolution to low-bit when I plug the device into my laptop. My screen flashes to black at least 4 times, and ultimately leaves my resolution at low-bit.

To correct it, I simply started the ATI Catalyst Center, and changed the resolution to 1280 X 800. The screen looks perfect now. Since I will be getting my HP Thin Client soon, it will be permanently powered up so this is one problem that will be easily solved.
