Compaq Laptop Issues


Avalon

Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

At work i have come accross a Compaq Armada 110, and its doing weird things. You cant see all of the desktop, but when you mive to the top of the screen the entire desktop scrolls!

 

So for example, when it first logs on you can see the start menu, so you move the mouse to the bottom of the screen, and the screen scrolls down, so you can see it!

 

Its very annoying - any ideas how i stop this from happening and just set it to view the full desktop?

 

Its 1024x768 32bit colours.

 

Cheers Folks!

Sounds like an older laptop that will only display a max of 800 x 600. The graphics card can manage 1024x768 but the screen can't. You're pushing it to use a resolution the screen can't show so it's scrolling round on desktop it can't show fully. If you drop the resolution it should be OK.

 

Hope that makes sense.
