screen resolution


Does anyone know if there is a resolution between 800x600 and 1024x768 that I can use? If I use 800x600 I constantly have to scroll to the side to read web pages but if I use 1024x768 text is extremely difficult to read(too small). So I am kind of looking for a medium. Can I just kind of make one up or is there only certain ones that will work?

Both your monitor and graphics card would need to support it. You may have better luck changing the font sizes in your web browser and using 1280x1024.
