Question about Profilux controller and dedicated Dell Mini 9"

[erikages]

Hi. Just bought a Dell Mini 9" micro laptop as a dedicated computer interface for the profilux. I use Macs in my house and fussing with workarounds was too much hassle, so I decided a native XP machine would be easier.

But I've discovered a new hassle. The resolution on the Dell Mini 9 is 1024 X 600, which means I can't view the entire GUI screen configured by Profilux! Of particular concern is the fact that I can reach the "OK" buttons at the base of the Profilux window.

The laptop's resolution can't be increased.

Does anyone have a workaround or resolutions (smirk) to this riddle?

Regards,

I've placed this on the support forum (http://www.aquariumcomputer.com/Forum/showthread.php?t=280) but no responses so far.

Strangely, I called DELL and said I wanted to return the Mini 9 in exchange for a Mini 10 high res. They offered me $125 in gift certificates and an additional 1 year free warranty to keep the Mini 9. So I'm keeping it and buying a Mini 10 (high res: 1366x768) which should solve the problem. I'll give the Mini 9 to someone as a gift or something.
