The setting that determines the amount of information that appears on your screen, measured in pixels. Low resolution, such as 640 x 480, makes items on the screen appear large, although the screen area is small. You can switch your screen resolution temporarily to 640 X 480 if you have games or other programs that are set to run at that resolution. High resolution, such as 1024 x 768, makes the overall screen area large, although individual items appear small. Your monitor and video adapter determine how much you can change your screen resolution. You may not be able to increase the resolution above a certain level.
