Hello, I'm running Win 7 and cannot change my resolution to anything higher than 640 x 480. I know this is because my graphics card (HD 7870) doesn't have any drivers installed. When I open up the installer though, the resolution is too low to actually click the install button, as it is off the bottom of the screen. I'm stuck as to how to proceed.

Stuck at too low of a resolution, really stuck.

Drag the window up on the screen. Or use your arrow keys to change the selected button and use that to press install

You have the monitor hooked to the GPU right? I have always been able to change the resolution to something large enough to see what I'm doing when first installing GPU drivers.
I can't drag it any higher on the screen. Hiding the task bar still isn't enough. I tried blindly using the keys but it doesn't seem to do any good. I'm stuck without being able to use the mouse. The monitor is hooked into the GPU, yes.

I think I have seen this once before and the fix to change the cable type connecting to the monitor
If you are using DVI try changing to a VGA cable if the monitor has one
You have my sympathies . It annoyed me X*^# out of me , and I still have no idea why it happened

Tried to install CCC onto the computer with the card out, and it didn't recognize any hardware that was compatible. Ugh. I'll see if I can find someone with a DVI monitor as mine is only HDMI. In the mean time any other ideas would be great, as its early AM here.
