Inspiron 9100

Question

I just purchased a new 9100 and I want to change my screen resolution to 1680x1050.   Right now it looks like it is maxed out at 1280x800.  I know that the 8600 has this option.  I want to play poker and be able to see 4 games at one time.   Is there something that I am missing?  Why can't I make the screen resolution smaller?   There are other options like using the 2nd monitor and the options go up to 2048x1536. Message Edited by schwingk on 11-26-2004 03:54 PM

What resolution screen did you purchase with the system?

If you got the low-end WXGA display, the max is 1280X800 - only if you ordered the WSXGA+ or WUXGA displays will you be able to go higher in resolution.

Apparently I need to upgrade... does 8x sound right?   I didn't know there were different options.  I thought it was a driver issue.   Oh ok thanks. Message Edited by schwingk on 11-26-2004 04:23 PM

If you upgrade the screen, you also lose your warranty. If you are within 21 days from shipment, send the system back and re-order, if you can (the 9100 is a discontinued model now).
