    Can anyone tell me how to configure a T21 so the display is 1024x768 vs. defaulting to 800x600. I utilized the restoration disk today and after the re-installation, the 1024x768 option was not found in the Properties > Settings tab.

    Thanks.

    what windows system does you operate? Please also try IBM website to get a upgraded driver for the display card. Good luck

    Thanks for the responses. I feel kind of dumb for not realizing immediately that it was a video driver problem. Once I installed a new Savage driver, the correct display resolution options all appeared.
