I have just installed Zorin on a 64-bit Toshiba laptop, everything running well, and fast, so far

however the screen resolution does not fit with the laptop screen, I have tried to adjust settings but have not found how to change it yet

help appreciated, thanks

Hi banjoman, Welcome... Go to Control Center, then click Monitor from the Hardware section and choice the resolution for your screen on the drop-down arrow from Resolution and hit Apply, please see attached image;

the Resolution facility didn't list the 16:9 option, however I have reinstalled Zorin as I lost the lower panel after the first update (see my post lost taskbar!!)

now the screen is displaying at the correct resolution, so my first installation obviously had errors in it
