640 X 480 Video with XP

[Guest]

My mother in law is going blind but still likes to use the computer. Her old
machine died so we have replaced it with a new XP Home computer. She has a 21
inch monitor but still needs the 640 X 480 size to be able to read it.
However I can only set XP to 800 X 600 min. How can I get XP to use 640 X 480
screen resolution?

Hi Ray,

You can also use the Magnifier via Start/All
Programs/Accessories/Accessibility.

Good luck!
