I just got a refurbished Gateway notebook running Windows XP Home. It has a widescreen monitor. But the display isn't widescreen, it's just normal-sized (there's big blank space on the right that's not being used). In the display properties thing, there are only two options for screen resolution -- 1024 X 786 and 800 X 600. So I went to Gateway's chat support. The support guy said that the problem is my video device can only handle up to 1024 X 786, and and that if I want to use my widescreen monitor, I'll need to upgrade my video device. Now, I like computers and all but I have NO IDEA what that means. Support guy says I have to contact my retailer for more info on that, but my retailer (globalcomputers.com) doesn't do tech support. So before I throw in the towel and ship this back to Global, do any of you kind folks here have ideas???
