Setting Display Resolution - Dell XPS 140M Owner's Manual

Setting Display Resolution

To display a program at a specific resolution, both the graphics card and the display must
support the program, and the necessary video drivers must be installed.
Before you change any of the default display settings, make a note of the default settings for
future reference.
If you choose a resolution or color palette that is higher than the display supports, the settings
adjust automatically to the closest supported values.
