If that's the native res of your screen, then obviously you're stuck with it in terms of the physical resolution of the display. Or am I misunderstanding the question?

There are programs that will draw a larger resolution screen, and scale it down to yours, but ive no idea how effective they are. And you can change DPI settings in XP if i recall. What's your problem and what exactly are you trying to achieve?

Pretty sure the T40 series cannot go beyond 1024 x 768, even the T60's, unless you get widescreen, are only capable, AFAIK, of going to 1024 x 768. If you need more use an external monitor or buy a Dell laptop
