Ok, upgraded my Sony laptop from Vista to WIN 7. I have two options in screen resolution, 800x600, or 1024x768. Of course, the 800x600 is way too big, but the 1024x768 doesn't fit, either. It's close, but still stretches the screen just a bit. It only lets me choose those two. Any ideas on getting it right? I am so computer challenged. --------------------------- While you are reading this, your enemy is training. |

What was your resolution before you upgraded? You might have to find the video card driver for Win 7. --------------------------- Support Pixtus by Purchasing Your Gear From: B&H Photo | Amazon | Adorama Check out the NEW Pixtus Photography Cheat Sheet!

Find the native resolution of the screen and set for that. Some screens really look bad when set outside native resolution. --------------------------- Purveyor of Quality, Handcrafted Pixels |

Go to this site - Sony eSupport - Electronics - and click "Detect My Model". That should load up a site that gives you compatibility info about your specific laptop and Win7 - including drivers info. |
