The Best Buy "Geek Squad" believes that my computer won't fill the entire Widescreen monitor from left to right because of an old video card.
It is the original video card that came with this Dell Dimension 4500 computer in 2001. It is called "32MB ATI Rage 128 Ultra". He says that if I upgrade to a new card for $70, it should support widescreen. He says they charge another $50 the install the new video card. I guess I should save my money and put it towards a whole new computer in the future-instead of upgrading to a new video card in an old computer like my Dell dimension 4500 w/only a 20gb hard drive. My Dell doesn't even have a DVI output for my current ACER ws monitor.
BTW...the maximum resolution I have is only 1152X864.
Thanks for everybody's help...
