So if you are running a projector at 800X600 then your screen size must also be 800x600. OK? ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2001 13:08:34 +0100 From: Christian F Buser To: "Joao C.

I think this is normal behaviour. Since you can't "mirror" 1152 x 768 on the projector, the internal screen only displays what can be seen on the other. And when your internal screen runs at 1152 x 768, it needs to somehow adjust the picture - the result is a black frame around it. You could set your internal screen to the same resolution as the projector, and it would be using the whole available screen. Best wishes, Christian. -- Christian F.
