    Laptop monitor
    I have a Dell Latitud laptop model C800, I did reinstall Windows 98 SE everything is running OK, but the monitor image is too small, in other words the screen does not cover all the surface like when was new. Can somebody help.
    Thank you

    Monitor
    Hi,
    Have you check your Display settings?
    Go to Control Panel/Display.
    Then, click on the Settings tab at top of that window.
    Look at the bottom of that window and see what the display is set at.
    Is it 800 x 600?
    If not, left click on the arrow, hold down the mouse key, and drag the setting to show 800 x 600.
    Click on Apply, and OK.
    Try that, see if it works.
    Best wishes,
    fredg
