Adjusting Your Monitor and Display Settings
There are many settings that you can adjust to control the way that your
Notebook displays text and images on your screen. To access these settings:
Select Start, then Control Panel. If you are in Category View, click
Appearance and Themes.
Click/double-click Display. This opens the Display Properties window.
You can also access the Display Properties window by right-clicking anywhere
on the desktop and then selecting Properties.
Changing the Desktop Background
In the Display Properties window, click the Desktop tab.
Select one of the images in the Background list, or click Browse to
use a personalized photo or image that you have saved on your hard
drive. Locate the image you would like to use, and click Open.
Your new background image is shown on the sample display. The
Position drop down menu lets you change how the image is
displayed.
Click Apply to show your new background image on your desktop. If
you are satisfied with this image, click OK.
Changing the Screen Saver
Using a screen saver can help extend the life of your monitor and prevent
burn in, which happens when images that are displayed for an extended
period of time create flaws in the monitor.
In the Display Properties window, click the Screen Saver tab.
Choose a screen saver from the drop down menu. The screen saver is
displayed with its current settings on the sample display.
Click Settings to customize your screen saver. This will open a dialog
box with options that depend on the screen saver that you have
chosen. When you have finished changing the settings, click OK to
close the dialog box.
