* Sony Vaio FE21H
* Graphics Card Geforce Go 7400
* Current driver 8.4.7.3
* No Last Useable Driver Version
* Operating System - XP pro sp2
this may be a newbie question, but still need answering....:
My laptop has a top resolution of 1280X800.
I want to get an external TFT monitor which will undoubtedly have a higher native resolution than that (I'm looking at several 20" screens right now)
1. Will my graphics card be able to run an external screen at a higher resoltuion than 1280X800? (and I'm not particularly intersted in games - this is really for working on photographs)
2. If it can't, and I run the external screen at lower than its native resolution, will I get a lousy picture?
many thanks
