Question : Screen resolution must be set to highest on laptop for full screen

Hi,
I have a Dell 8200 running XP home.  The screen resolution has to be set at the highest setting for a full screen monitor.   If I lower the resolution, the monitor view is about half.  All drivers have been update from the Dell site for video.

thanks

Answer : Screen resolution must be set to highest on laptop for full screen

Some laptops have an "expand" function that is hardware-controlled; it's an Fn + Fx key combo and the manual should give you the correct procedure to stretch the screen.
