Go to Start | Control Panel | Display option. On “Themes” tab select the “Windows classic” theme. On the “Settings” tab set the display to approximately ~1200 X ~700-800 resolution. Or, • 2. Right click the Desktop DRS for Windows icon, and select the “Properties” option. Select the “Compatiblity” option and select the option to use of the 640 X 400 display resolution.
