Change Screen Resolution Instructions
The ideal screen resolution for ICOS is 1280 x 1024 and the minimum screen resolution is 1024 x 768. A higher screen resolution reduces the size of items on your screen and increases the relative space on your desktop.
The following instructions are for three operating systems: Windows 7, Windows XP, and Windows Vista. However, your monitor and video adapter determine how much you can change your screen resolution, so may not be able to increase the resolution above a certain level.
