Title: Switching Screen Resolutions
Post by: Anonymous on October 31, 2002, 02:11:18 PM

Hi,

My girlfriend has a Packard Bell laptop with S-Video which she uses to watch DVDs on her TV.  However, she needs to change the screen from LCD to TV in the control panel.  What she was wondering was, is it possible to create a shortcut to this on the taskbar, so all she has to do to make the change is click the button (rather than going into Control Panel, Display etc everytime?).

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Marc.

p.s. she is running Windows Me.

Isn\'t it possible to use a hotkey .
With Ati Radeon control panel I assume there is , and with Nvidia there\'s a possibility too with the 40 - 41 drivers
