    Does anyone know how to add custom resolutions to XP? My moniter has a native resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, but XP doesn't have it listed in the display properties.

    see attach: mine can go up to a higher number, but I do not use it I like 1024x728, when you go to display/settings, where is the slider positioned? mine is pretty far to the left so that I can get the setting I want, but I can slide it further right for higher resolution, and it shows it in the display/settings/advanced for the intel graphic settings box.

    Mine doesn't go up quite that high (top is 1280x1024). I have it at 1280x768 because that is the highest widescreen resolution listed. I was thinking that there might be a file somewhere that I could edit to add custom resolutions.

    Could you create a zipped folder of the drivers on your PC and upload it? They will probably be at C:\dell\drivers.
    Thanks.

    Sorry it took me so long to check this.
    My computer is a Dell Dimension 3000, otherwise I wouldn't have asked for your drivers, since they wouldn't have worked.
    Thanks a lot for the link.
