Answer» My computer information:
Intel Core i5 CPU 750 2.67ghz x4 8 gigs ram Windows 7 64 bit ATI Radeon HD 4600 series(graphics card)
So I'm not sure what exactly is going on. I tried playing Civ 5 today and the graphics were a bit off. SWTOR's graphics were also off. Plus my desktop display is slightly bigger than it should be. Text seems a bit off in various things as well. And videos viewed on netflix are less clear. This happened today. I haven't downloaded any files or changed any SETTINGS. Not 100% sure if anything updated, but maybe adobe flash player? But would that affect everything else? I mention this because under control panel - system and security adobe flash player is labeled 32bit, not 64bit which my computer is running. Under control panel - system and security - system, the information says its running a 64 bit operating system. Shrug.
So FAR I've tried adjusting the resolution, restarting my computer, reinstalling the graphics card drivers, and uninstalling the graphics card drivers and reinstalling them. This obviously has not worked. The drivers are the latest available.
Is there a way for the computer to auto-detect the best settings for your computer(in case mine somehow got off?) Maybe a program I can download to do this or something that already comes with the operating system? Any other suggestions or ideas?

This is normal.
Update:
Slight update, no solution. Exploring my monitor's company's(ASUS) website I am told the proper resolution for my monitor is 1600 x 900, and I'm fairly sure this is what it was before. However, today it decided to run at 1440 x 900 and if I try to change the resolution I am told on the monitor screen that this is "out of RANGE". The companies forums are riddled with adverts for various medications. I tried putting in a help request, but I do not have much faith in this and their phone lines are mysteriously down for maintenance. Googling has not produced any results so far in my searches either. TY for any assistance! The Monitor is an ASUS LCD flat screen 20" VE 205N model.So I had tried disconnecting the cord from the CPU, but not the monitor. Once I unplugged and then replugged the cord into the monitor everything was fine. Ta da! So simple...
