    Klink: That usually means your video card can’t handle those settings.

  3. I cannot ajust my resolution because my display is too large to see the bottom of the screen in order to ajust screen. I cannot get the screen or objects on the screen to get small enough to see the bottom in order to even move the cirsor. Please help
