ok, from the desktop, right click and then click display properties, you should then have a few tabs, search through them, one will give you colour and aspect ratioFrancis Pybis

not usually if it has worked previous, however, you can write down the name of your graphics card from the systems menu, and download the driverFrancis Pybis
