“Vista image?”
I have Vista on my laptop. Not sure what this is, though.
buy a MAC....
Are they biker bars or leather bars...
i have a mac also.
Don’t know...while running Vista on my new laptop, I have thought about throwing it out the sliding glass door and off the deck. :)
Try this: position your cursor (the arrow) on your desktop, just on the image, and right-click the mouse. That’ll bring up a menu, and you should choose “Personalize” at the bottom of the menu. When the new window full of choices opens, choose “Desktop Background” - and once that opens, see the 3 choices at the bottom of that new window for “Choose a Desktop Background.” At the bottom, see the “How should picture be positioned?” - and choose the one which fills the entire screen. See if that works.
I think what you are facing is a settings issue with the display monitor. Check the graphics display resolution to see that it matches the hardware resolution.
don’t run vista on your blackberry and don’t post to fr from it either
Ken, there is a place to work on desktop properties. You may still be able to there by right clicking the desktop. Otherwise I’d suggest you access your computer options by hitting start and some reasoned second option.
In the properties area, you can select stretch on the desktop image.
Sorry I can’t be of more help. This is what I did when I fixed my brothers display.
Are you in prison?
Most monitors have adjustments for screen size, usually located somewhere around the bottom part of the frame that surrounds the screen.
Have you tried adjusting these controls?

It's also destroyed your ability to capitalize.
I'd shut it right down if I were you.

Could be both...
