Changing the video resolution

You can change the video resolution by changing the default Predesktop Area
resolution settings of 800 × 600 × 16-bit. To change the settings, complete the
following procedures:
1. Get the \MININT\SYSTEM32\WINBOM.INI file by using the RRUTIL process
described in "Using RRUTIL.EXE" on page 30.
2. Open the file for editing.
3. Add the following entries:
[ComputerSettings]
DisplayResolution=800x600x16 or 1024x768x16
When the Rescue and Recovery environment starts, you see an additional
window during startup that is titled "Factory preinstallation". The colors are
reduced from thousands to 256.
4. Put back the \MININT\SYSTEM32\WINBOM.INI file by using the RRUTIL
process described in "Using RRUTIL.EXE" on page 30.
