Icon for screen size in system tray

[Vance Roos]

How can I get my XP Pro system to show an icon in the system tray
in the bottom right hand corner from which I can adjust the screen
size (1024x768, 1152x864, etc)?

XP in itself does not have this feature, but you can install a third party
utility such as PowerStrip. Some video cards also have this feature. Check
in Display Properties under Settings and Advanced. For ATi cards it should
be located under the Options tab.

Hi Vance,

In some previous versions of Microsoft Windows, you can enable the Quickres
utility by clicking the "show settings icon on taskbar" option in the
Display Properties dialog box. This option is not available in Windows XP
because Windows XP does not include the Quickres utility.
