Sounds like you used the defaults and loaded XP a second time. If you start again, you will have the option to delete partitions and do a clean install. That is the one. After XP is loaded, put in the resource CD and load all drivers with a tick. The chipset should be first. Have a look at the product support tab above, it may give more info. I dont know what model you have, but Fn and F7 will make the screen bigger. You have to do it at the right time to work. ( with 2000 it is when the white bars go accross the bottom, XP it is the blue dashes ) Does the Dell Icon look small when you boot ? Hope this helps.
The F7 does not apply. See what it is like when all the drivers have been loaded, I dont think it applies to you, but some of the later machines have a setting in the Bios to expand lo-res video. Have you checked the tab above ?
