Select Control Panel.
Then select Monitors.
Select Thousands of colors (or an any option greater than 256 colors).
Select the Options button to reveal a new screen
Change the screen size to 832 X 624 or the closest option available. Any larger than 800 X 600 may result in a tiny font that you can barely read. Your screen may blank out momentarily while it resets to the new size.
These directions may not precise because every monitor may have a different control panel.
