Resolution

1. Click My Computer/Control Panel/Appearance and Themes/

Display. Click on the Settings tab. The dialog box will display
your monitor’s current resolution.

2. Under “Screen resolution,” use the slide bar to adjust monitor’

s resolution. Normally, you should use the resolution your LCD
monitor was designed for.

Note: Using a lower resolution than the screen was designed for

will reduce the displaying area. Using the computer in DOS mode

produces the same effect, because it uses a 640 by 480 resolution

by default.

►Dual Displays◄
Under Windows operating system, you may use an external moni-
tor and your notebook’s LCD screen simultaneously. You may also
choose to only use the external monitor with the LCD disabled or
vice versa.

1. Open Control Panel.
2. Double-click on Display. The Display Properties window will
open.
3. Click on the Settings tab.
4. Click on the Advanced button.
5. Select the Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for Mobile
tab.
