Video Settings
Your WinBook XL2 provides you with a wide range of video inputs and
outputs. You should take a little time to familiarize yourself with these
aspects of your machine.
Your WinBook XL2 allows you adjust the brightness of the LCD screen by
using the [Fn]+[F6] hot key combination to decrease screen brightness or
the [Fn]+[F7] hot key combination to increase screen brightness. You will
need to hold this combination for several seconds to see any affect. There
is also an Autodim function in the BIOS power management settings.
Autodim automatically reduces screen intensity when the system is using
battery power. You can disable this if you need increased screen brightness
while using battery power. See Chapter Eight for more information about
the Autodim function.
Your WinBook XL2 will support a number of resolutions. Resolution is a
measure of the number of pixels (a pixel is a single dot of color on the
screen). In addition to supporting multiple resolutions, your system will
also support a various number of colors at each resolution (that is, each dot
can range through that many colors). Your screen will support a resolution
of 1024 x 768 pixels with up to 64K colors or a resolution of 800 x 600
pixels with up to 256K colors. Notice that when you put your computer
into the DOS mode, which uses the VGA resolution (640 x 480) as a
default, the display will be stretched to fit the full screen.
If you lower the resolution of your LCD, you may find that the desktop
area will not fill the entire screen. This should not be the case for an
external monitor.
When you are displaying the video on the built-in screen, you cannot choose a
higher resolution than the standard resolution. However, you can use a higher
resolution when you output the notebook’s video to an external monitor that
supports high resolutions. When using an external monitor, the WinBook
XL2 will support the following resolutions:
