Display question

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I have an XP (IBM) laptop computer. A user is hooked to a projector and on
the laptop itself the display is fine. However on the projector output the
image is alot bigger and you have to scroll up/down & back/forth to see the
rest of the image.

I have hooked to another IBM laptop and it's fine so there must be a setting
on the computer. (I've tried Function F7, F11, display properties)

Bob, thanks for the reply.

Got it fixed. The problem when I would go to display properties/settings,
changes to the second monitor would not apply. Both resolutions were set to
1024x768, but the projector/display was actually displaying 640 x ??? so it
was huge output. I actually went to Properties/settings/advanced/ATI
Displays tab, here is Monitor, Panel, TV options. Clicked on the Monitor tab
and changed the resolution. Working great now.
Should have mentioned before ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 adapter.
