Hello,
How to change device resolution to VGA(640*480)? Is there any key in
registry? I have found this key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display\GPE]
"LogicalPixelsY"=dword:00000060
"LogicalPixelsX"=dword:00000060

When I change LogicalPixelsY and LogicalPixelsX values to 96 or 192,
after a soft reset the resolution changes to 640*480 or 320*240?

Does this registry key works on all of pocket pc devices? or It's
specific for my Axim x50v?

I want to changes the resolution to VGA(640*480) by my program
installation.

Thanks.
Parham

Most devices don't support 640x480 at all and current devices which do
handle applications which assume 320x240 resolution, as well as those which
are resolution aware. I don't think that you should be changing the
resolution in a way that is incompatible with that behavior.

If you mark your EXE as resolution aware, you don't have to do anything.
That's the right way to do it.

Read this from the newsgroup archives on Google:
