Most people nowadays use LCD displays and these have a ‘native resolution’ – basically the resolution the monitor is designed to display. If you pick a lower resolution your display will look fuzzy – because the image produced by your PC doesn’t line up with the dots that make up your display. If you pick too high a resolution your screen acts as a window scrolling around a bigger virtual desktop which is more than a little confusing!
You can find your native resolution from at least one of the following sources:
- Look on the back of the monitor
- Check the documentation that came with the monitor
- ‘Google’ the model of your monitor and get the information online
You set your resolution by right-click on the screen background and depending on your operating system select ‘Properties’ or ‘Personalise’ – look out for ‘Settings’ and use the slider to adjust the resolution up or down.
