    forcing screen resolution?!

    I think your "long time ago" was back in the CRT days. You could force a higher resolution on a CRT and actually have it display as such (though at a lower refresh rate) up to a certain limit (depends on the quality of the monitor). LCDs are nowhere as versatile as CRTs when it comes to different resolutions. This is due to the way the two technologies work (analogue vs. digital). LCDs have a "native resolution", the one resolution where it will display 1:1. Anything lower than that native resolution will be stretched and look very blurry (newer screens may have an option to center it and not stretch it). Anything higher will either not display, get downsampled, or have lines dropped.

    forcing screen resolution?!

    okay, the reason I haven't bought a new monitor is because a long time ago I heard about forcing screen resolutions through vga.

    I have a 1440x900 @60hz max display and today was able to force 1920x1200 '60hz, I may try more later. done though ccc/windows and not regedit.

    however the font isn't as clear as it can be? anyone got any tips on how to neaten this up?

    thanks

    • Type Change screen resolution in the
      Search
      box from the desktop.
    • Under Resolution search for the Recommended resolution and click on
      Apply.
    • A windows pops up saying "Keep these display settings", then select
      Keep changes.
