If you’ve ever seen the “out of range” error message on your monitor, you may have been confused about what it means. This error message occurs when your monitor can’t display the image that your computer is sending to it. There are a few reasons why this might happen, which we’ll explain in more detail below.
One common reason for the “out of range” error message is that your computer’s resolution is set to a higher setting than your monitor can handle. For example, if your monitor has a maximum resolution of 1280×1024 and you try to set your computer to a resolution of 1600×1200, you’ll get the “out of range” error message. To fix this, you’ll need to lower your computer’s resolution to a setting that your monitor can handle.
Another common reason for the “out of range” error message is that your monitor’s refresh rate is set to a higher setting than it can handle. The refresh rate is the number of times per second that your monitor refreshes the image on the screen. Most monitors have a maximum refresh rate of 60Hz, which means they can refresh the image 60 times per second. If you try to set your monitor to a refresh rate of 75Hz or higher, you’ll get the “out of range” error message. To fix this, you’ll need to lower your monitor’s refresh rate to a setting that it can handle.
If you’re getting the “out of range” error message, it’s likely because your computer’s resolution or refresh rate is set to a higher setting than your monitor can handle. To fix this, you’ll need to lower your computer’s resolution or refresh rate to a setting that your monitor can handle.
