uses only a portion of your

tem’s native pixel reso-
lution and display

cations that do not support 8native pixel resolution. You can fill the
screen but have less resolution by changing display compression
settings, (See Video Features submenu located within the
Advanced menu of the BIOS. See “BIOS Setup Utility” on
page 44.

tery gauge and adjust Power Control under battery settings.
