Screen resolution

[mrsjangles]

I know this is an easy fix but, just can't remember how to do it. 

I got a new computer and the screen doesn't seem right.  When cropping photos I will do a 1:1 crop but it isn't square to look at on screen, the photo looks to be longer on the long edge.  However, when I print, it is square.

I know this is to do with my display setting, and it is set at 1024 x 768, I am just unsure what it should be set at.

I hope all this makes sense.

Cheers Anne

When you have the list of resolutions, you should see that one is "recommended":

Got it!  and thanks that worked. I didn't scroll high enough.

1024 x 768 was great in the 1990's on 15" CRT (Tube) Displays.
