One thing you might try is to make your virtual resolution larger than the physical resolution. By moving your cursor to the edge of the screen it will scroll across the virtual desktop. The virtual screen can be 800x600 or 1024x768 or even larger. You can also try using an interlaced mode. On some monitors (though not likely on yours) it allows an 800x600 screen at a reduced quality.
