    Its screen res is about 1024x768, i have problems always scrolling down the pages to see the thinks im looking for. I was wondering how to make it work like large monitor just so everythink will look smaller on desctop and on web pages. So i dont have to scrool left or right, down or up always..

    You can zoom out of pages using your browser zoom settings. You will loose clarity due to your low resolution however.

    Proper resolution should be 1024 x 600 but not 1024 x 768.

    You can also decrease the DPI setting below its default setting in the Windows display settings (go to "Display" in Control Panel, or right click on desktop -> Screen resolution -> "make text and other items larger or smaller").

    This may mess with your clarity also, though.

    Also causes some applications to go out of window.
