virtual resolution on windows xp


Recommended Posts

the reason i needed it: i, for one liked it, and i have parents who often look over my shoulder at what im doing, and sometimes use the computer, but arn't smart enough with a computer to realize that something may be hidden

it gets rather annoying when they ask about people im talking to or read about plans that i'm making

my friend had it on his computer i believe but again, he was running an ATi, i have an NVidia, so i was just wondering

not something absolutly needed but i was just hoping that it was possible

yeah, i had virtual desktops...its not my favorite

I know How!!! I use that to work with Non Linear Video Edittion in one Monitor!!! My desktop resolution are: 2880x900x32

IN THE NVIDIA Control Panel -> Manage Custom Resolutions

1: Set -> Allow modes not exposed by the display

2: Click on CREATE

3: Set -> Back-End Parameters -> Timing Standard -> Manual

? You don't need to change nothing here!!! But... you need to SET: MANUAL at first !!!! To the new resolution keep the same Pixel Aspect Ratio of your Default Resolution... or your Desktop will be Stretched!!!!

4: Set -> Horizontal Desktop Pixels

5: Set -> Vertical Desktop Pixels

Test... Apply... And Change your Resolution!!!

Good Luck!!!

    • are you comparing a BETA w10 to stable w11? you just lose your argument there, now you can argue that every single version of windows its unstable and have bugs but it didn't took 4 years to fix it lets face it w11 looks like a beta OS, besides to this day w11 its not stable enough, now that works for you, great but here at neowin you see so many news about issues on w11, from erasing data, to bitlocker locking system to breaking printers so far and so often. So what its your point? defend w11 because you like it or works for you, perhaps you are the one that need to "opening a curtain in your basement might provide a new perspective in life."
    • You said quite a lot, and nothing at all.
    • This is what I assumed would happen back when the rumors started. A new tab on Instagram for your text feed... That way you'd get two facets of a user - a visual and a more textual/discussion-oriented one.
    • I agree - it's Cerebras power. Funny how Mistral isn't listed for that provider on OpenRouter despite Mistral being on OpenRouter. Edit: Ah, Mistral is of course their own provider on OR... Which probably in turn uses Cerebras. It's just that you don't get to it directly via OR.
    • I’m all for autonomous taxis. In my rural area a car is vital for work, socialising and appointments. Public transport is almost non-existent, with only two buses a day and none on weekends. The roads are narrow, unlit B roads with no pavements, so walking or cycling is unsafe. If you cannot drive, you depend on lifts or expensive taxis. City politicians / Gov keep making car ownership harder: higher road tax, soaring insurance because of repair costs and parts delays, and ever-rising fuel prices. A single mistake, such as a shaky cyclist overtake or getting trapped in a yellow box due to badly placed traffic lights at a roundabout and someone pulling out in front, can cost you your licence. They also push everyone toward electric vehicles, which do not work here. Many houses have no driveway and due to historic protection rules/laws cant add one, and you cannot run charging cables over the few bits of pavement we do have. Driving elsewhere to charge would also hurt the few local businesses left and act as a hidden tax on rural life as its more expensive to charge away from home. That’s why an on-demand, self-charging automated taxi service would be perfect for people here.
