Default Okay i got my new comp...

Ended up getting the 17" inspiron laptop with a widescreen and some bondseque juiced up features (havent got the extra monitor yet). Love it so far. I can fit 4 tables of absolute w/ no overlap, but each table takes up less than a fourth of the screen. How do I make it so they each fill exactly 1/4?? (res is 1900 x 1200- i checked the faq but still couldnt figure it out) thanks

That will stretch the tables and make them look weird. What's the point?

Short answer: you can't

long answer: the only way to do this would be to change the screen resolution to 1600x1200 (or anything with a 4:3 ratio) however this will end up looking weird since the monitor is not intended for this resolution (it might not even be possible).

yeah, i dont wanna do that. the screen is not big enough to fit six tables (which is the most i play) without overlap. any way to resize to fit six? how about on the 24" dell that i am getting (2407 i think)?

The 2407's native resolution is 1920x1200. The answer is again no. You can connect the two and play 6 tables with no overlap.
