In Topic: Cant see the whole machine

29 March 2005 - 10:32 PM

Did you increase the screen resolution and then re-open the machine ?

For those not in the now you can set your display to bigger than your screen can handle by doing the following things.

Right click on your desktop and click properties.
Click settings and then advanced at the bottom
Click monitor and untick the option "Hide modes that this monitor cannot display"
Click apply and then ok at the bottom
On the settings tab your monitor slider should now be able to go up to bigger sizes than your monitor can handle. the end result is that you can zoom around the machine as the monitor moves with it.

Try this and then move the mouse around the edges of the screen and the display should follow the mouse and you can view / use the whole of the machine just not in one display.

Kinda sucks but at least you can still play the machine.

KB article anyone ?



Don't mean to be a pain in the backside, but does this work in Windows 98? I can't seem to find the "Hide modes this monitor cannot display" button. I can't get bigger than 800x600
