I do like to use Windows XP every so often, but I just can’t get the screen resolution right, 1680×1050 on a 22 inch monitor. I know how to do it normally, but it seems that Windows drivers just don’t support that many display resolutions for monitors or display adapters. On my dual boot system running Linux and Windows, Linux has a wonderful screen at full resolution, but Windows XP is distorted, stretched and hard on the eyes.
What can one do to correct the problem if there is a way to do it? Can one edit the drivers?
