WinPE Screen Resolution
Quote from Craftwork2829 on 2025-04-07, 2:18 AMI have several WinPE on E2B drive.
Example: Hiren;s Boot CD v1.0.8; it is based on Win11.
I had to create .imgOTN23 in order for all the programs to load.
The problem is the screen resolution is 1900x1080 and I can't read it. Windows display settings do not show any other display option. Is theer a way to change the resolution? I found a program Setres, but it does not work. it says the resolution I am tring is not supported.
If a boot directly from the .iso, the screen resolution is 1024x768, but most programs are not loaded... catch 22
Here is what I need
1366x768
1024x768
1900x1080 scaled at 125%
I only need to get one of those options to work.
Thank you! I hope you still supporting this program. I have used a bunch of the muliboot utilities and this one is the best i have used. I am able to get almost any iso to boot and there is persistent so I can save changes.

Update - My system is UEFI only (No CSM). I have to use agFM menu.
If I boot Hiren's directly from iso, then the resolution is 1024x768, but not all programs are available.
If I boot the iso using the Ventory option, then all the programs are available, but resolution is 800x600.
If I convert the iso to imgPTN, then the resolution is 1024x768 and all programs ARE available.

You can try using text mode for the menu system or selecting a different resolution for the menu system using the optios in the menu system first, before booting to Hirens.
imgPTN was developed to remove compatibility issues such as these...
