This is weird but I found out by accident if you plug in your laptop to a data projector, the laptop's screen res defaults to 1024X576 allowing you to see the whole desktop without that 'orrible scrolling up and down. This screen res will 'stick' even if you unplug the data projector. You will lose it if you try another screen res .....until you find another data projector. regards vincent Requests/Suggestions Sat, 25 Jul 2009 11:44:42 GMT http://nswder.forumotion.net/requests-suggestions-f2/getting-the-screen-res-to-1024x576-t31.htm#71 http://nswder.forumotion.net/requests-suggestions-f2/getting-the-screen-res-to-1024x576-t31.htm http://nswder.forumotion.net/requests-suggestions-f2/wish-list-for-the-der-laptops-t77.htm CDQ-1 I can't wait for my Yr 9's to get their laptops and start making movies on Premier Elements 4 -- I just wish that the DER had included Celtx (http://celtx.com/) on the laptops -- they seem to have catered for other subject much better than Drama.
