Configuring Resolution and Colour Depth

Screen resolution is the number of pixels displayed on the screen. High resolution makes the overall screen area large, although individual items appear small. Colour quality is determined by the number of bits used to represent a pixel on the screen. High colour quality displays more number of colours on your screen.
