that’s getting tired.
leo laporte addressed that issue recently and most people and corporations are changing their minds about vista.

Yep, I have, and it stinks.
To: ken21
Seriously, are you trying to display a photo on your desktop and it’s black either side? (If so, maybe someone can help but not me since I don’t have Vista.)

nothing humble about you. Your caps still aren't registering.
You should fix that quick before someone mistakes you for a texting teen!
You.. DO know how to write properly, right?

Did you know about capitalizing the first word of a sentence?
It's been going on for years like that, all the kids are doing it.

um, have you heard of the u.s. constitution and free speech? There is a rich tradition on FR of making fun of people who post quick little weird questions like yours. Or don't you think humblegunner has free speech?

you act like a feminazi. That's SO cool how you can call names but cannot capitalize.
I wish I could recapture those glory days of Kindergarten like you do.
sheesh, all the morons crawl out from under rocks.
You consider folks who write properly morons?
SWEET!

Ah. I see the probably proximate cause:
display resolution of 1920 x 1200
If you can get your graphics cards to those settings you should be okay. Unfortunately I can't help any further because (as I said) i don't have Vista.
And I know it won't help to say I went through something similar when I received a 1440x900 monitor to use with my Linux machine. But it works now... Good luck and maybe some Vista-savvy FReeper (GE?) can help you.

In 'customization' (control panel) you'll find 'display settings' - you can set the resolution to 1280 x 800 or some other widescreen resolution.
