What size is the LCD? Most 17" inch will be 1024x768 or
higher. If the LCD (monitor) is not properly identified, XP
will default to 800x600, which will work on a CRT. But an
LCD has a finite number of pixels and that is where it must
be run. Look at the specs for the LCD and set that number.
You should download and install the inf file for the LCD so
that the graphics will "know" what to set. Unless you
bought the LCD from a car trunk at mid-night, you should
have gotten documentation.

| It was 800x600 originally. I did that and the problem
still is there.
