Hey Guys,

 

So I have the following problem with my Office:

When I get home I hook my laptop up to a 22" 1600*900 VGA monitor.

As you can see the Office program still displays in the 1600*900 quality on my 1920*1080 laptop screen.

I dont know how to fix this but hopefully you guys will be able to.

 

Stay fluffy!

You might need to adjust the resolution of the monitor in the control panel. I don't know how different Win8 is to Win7 so I'm unsure of the steps.

@MrFluffyPants Maybe you're duplicating the monitor on both screens (so it takes the lowest rez of the two, 1600x900, and displays it on bith screens)? Just search for "resolution" in windows search and try to play around with the monitor settings there.

I just changed it form 1920*1080 to 1600*1050 on my laptop and then went back to 1920*1080 and it worked.

Thanks dude! :3
