    Guys, how do I get my screen resolution in Windows XP to 'Scale' to size rather than 'diminish' in size? At the moment, if I reduce the resolution of my MacBook Pro 17" to 1024 X 768, the Windows desktop 'shrinks' in size all around with black space, to reflect the new resolution - what I want is for the desktop not to reduce in size all around and become smaller to the eye, but rather for the windows Desktop to 'scale' in size so that the real estate is being used all around and images are larger in size. I am not sure what option enables me to achieve this effect which I used to obtain with the earlier version of Parallels before Beta 2.

    Custom resolution

    did you create custom resolutions in the properties sheet for your VM? I am not a Windows user but I think it is Windows reacting to the video environment it sees rather than a Windows problem.
