Default Screen Resolution

In Settings in Display, I can't change the screen area 640x480 pixels - the
window is larger than the monitor screen so that the Apply and OK command
buttons at the bottom are not visible. I've moved the window up and removed
the Taskbar but the buttons are not visible. I can adjust the slide bar and
close the window but upon return, the slider is back at 640x480.
I just added 128mB memory for a total of 256 and using Win 98SE. Any
suggestions? Thanks.

I've found the answer: use the Enter key in place of hte Apply button.
Everything normal now.

After you reset the Display properties, press Enter if you cannot see the OK
button because it is off the bottom of the screen.


You might have to press Tab once or twice to advance the cursor to the OK
button which you cannot see because it's off the bottom of the screen.

Make the change and press Enter. It's the same as Apply/Ok.
