How should that ever be possible, except for a real dualhead environment (with different contents on both screens)? You're obviously running clone mode. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It seems to work for me "the other way round". That is, the external monitor will run as a compressed version of the internal. I use 1280x800 on the LCD and 1024x768 external, in clone mode. The external is slightly compressed, naturally, but entirely readable (I use it for projecting). I was pretty impressed by its cleverness, actually :) Cheers, Simon "You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers.
