or you may need to tap F8....holding down dont work on my pc for some reason

Looks like all you need to do is set the refresh rate to 60hz and resoloution to 800*600.

Im not 100% sure as im on vista but this is how i would do it on vista, should be nearly the same:

Open up display panel ( right click and properties )

Go to the part where u get the slider and slide to 800*600.

Click advanced, then moniter, then select 60hz from the drop down menu.

as i said thats for vista, i dont have my XP machine with me at the moment, but should be around the same place.
