A distorted desktop is a better user experience than an "out of range" message and no desktop at all.
Last CRT I ran into that couldn't do 1600x1200 was made more than 16 years ago. [...]
I have one in my basement that displays a moving "out of range" for anything beyond 1280x1024. The label on its back says: "MANUFACTURED: OCTOBER 1996". :-) Anyway, the OP explicitly wrote: "highest resolution (1600x1200) which the monitor could not handle" and I see no reason to doubt his words. But I'll defer to him to further defend his case. HTH T. -- Tilman Schmidt E-Mail: tilman@imap.cc Bonn, Germany Diese Nachricht besteht zu 100% aus wiederverwerteten Bits.
