trying to match resolution on a dual monitor set up
Here is what I amd looking at, I will post the specs because this is a friends computer:
HP Pavilion p6313w
Athlonll X2 215 (R) 2.7 GHz (65W)
NVIDIA GeForce 9100 (integrated)
5 GB Ram
640 GB SATA 3G HD
HP 2159m 21.5" LCD wide-screen monitor
19" polaroid tv/monitor
Here is problem I am running into, I have the HP monitor plugged into the DVI port and the polaroid plugged into the VGA port. I went into the displays menu and chose "duplicate these displays" which is what he needed to do.
Now what I have is the polaroid is too big to fit the screen (Icons are huge and the desktop spills off the screen), and the hp monitor doesn't fill the screen. I could not locate a driver for the polaroid monitor (according to the site it should not need one) and it is seen as a plug and play monitor. Any thoughts as a way to get the resolutions right per monitor while keeping it duplicated? I can fix it if I extend the desktop, but this defeats the purpose for him. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!!
