Looking for confirm if the default resolution for Window Vista in Safe Mode
is 800X600 or if Windows Vista uses the low resolution setting of 640x480 by default when in Safe Mode? |

What is the default resolution for Window Vista in Safe Mode?
Hi mlehane,
The following is an extract from 'Windows Vista Inside Out', page 815. You will notice that it states 'a generic video driver at 800 x 600 resolution'. Dwarf "Using Safe Mode Like previous versions, Windows Vista gives you the option to start your system in Safe Mode if you’re unable to start reliably in the normal manner. In Safe Mode, Windows uses only those services and drivers that are absolutely required to start your system. The operating system runs with a generic video driver at 800 x 600 resolution, with support for keyboard, mouse, monitor, local storage, and default system services. In Safe Mode, Windows does not install support for audio devices and nonessential peripherals. Your USB flash drives, hard disks, keyboard, and mouse will be supported, provided your system BIOS includes the option to recognize and enable these devices. All logon programs (programs in your Startup folder, for example) are bypassed."
