Chapter 1: Getting Started
When you are displaying the video on the built-in screen, you cannot choose a higher resolution than the standard resolution. However, you can use a higher resolution when you output the notebook’s video to an external monitor that supports high resolutions. You can quickly adjust the resolution and number of color settings through Windows’s Display Properties window. To open this window, right-click on the Desktop and select Properties.
Click on the Settings tab.(Figure 1.9) You can now choose from the available display options, including window colors and backgrounds. For more information on video resolutions, see Chapter 6.
