I have a powerbook with 12" display (os tiger). I have a question:

How do I configure this Mac in order to use the a 17" display and 1280*1024 screen resolution on full screen because it is set to use mirror mode for the displays.

If I choose 1280*1024 screeen resolution it will display this resolution in a 12" area inside the 17" monitor and not on full screeen.

The monitor is a Benq FP71G+.

Thank you

Go to the Displays pane of System Preferences and click on the Arrangement tab.

I have a big mistake in my thread. It is not a 14" powerbook, it is a 12". This one.

So, any help?
