Forced lower resolution?

[DerekLee1]

Hi. I have a question about the DisplayLink drivers and USB monitors. Many of these USB LCD screens have "fixed" resolutions as I understand. I've tried a few of them and found that indeed, using DisplayLink, I cannot change the resolution. However, if I use that LCD monitor to duplicate another desktop at a lower resolution, it does in fact change to a lower resolution. This tells me that it *should* be possible to lower the resolution. Am I wrong in this? I have software that MUST be used on the extended desktop in 1024x768, so if my USB monitors can't be used in that resolution, it's a dealbreaker for me. Please tell me there's a way to make this happen! Thanks.

No ideas from anyone here?

Hi,

Those that have fixed resolutions are unable to change mode (when extending).

Not all have fixed resolutions though.

Thanks,
