    I've got a Z61t, and I just reinstalled Windows XP, but in the screen settings the max resolution offered in 1024x768, even though it's a widescreen, so there should be more pixels available in the width. How can I fix this?

    did your system come with windows vista and then you reinstalled with xp???.
    what gpu do u have??
    if you have a geforce 8400/8600/8800 card then theres chance of some incompatibility. go to www.laptopvideo2go.com and download the latest drivers for your card. that must solve the issue
