screen resolution.
is there a way to change it to be inbetween two of the preset options? such as 1024 by 768 is what i normally use, but i want more. so i moved it up a notch to 1280 by 1024, but that's a little too much. is there a way to get it inbetween, or no? [i'm using a laptop if the counts for anything, which i'm not sure if it does.]

Some video cards do have an intermediate resolution of 1152 x 864, but if yours doesn't, there's no way to make it so. You can't just choose arbitrarily; you're stuck with what is available.
However, you can change the size of your icons, text, and other such things in the Display Properties window. Assuming you're using XP, click over to the "Appearance" tab. You can change the font size between Normal, Large, and Extra Large. If you click on Effects, you can use large icons. And if you really want to tweak things, you can click on Advanced and specifically select your font sizes, colors, typestyles, etc.
If you enlarge your fonts and icons, you may find that the 1280 x 1024 resolution works for you.

There is no way to set it between the two settings. Because of the way that the screen is set up, the ratio has to be a certain number. In most computers that ratio is 4:3. There may be some number in between that can work, but no one really makes drivers for settings between that one.
