I am using VNC to remote into my main Windows 2000 desktop PC with a laptop running Windows XP pro. Screen on the desktop is 17 inch at 1152 x 864 true colour.

Laptop is a Compaq Evo n600c with 14.1-inch color TFT XGA with 1024 x 768 resolution (up to 16.7M colors internal).

Problem: The screen resolution on the laptop means I have to run the mouse cursor to the edges of the laptop screen to shift the desktop or app image to get at the scrollbars of the app itself. This is a total PITA. Do I need to alter the resolution of the desktop PC to fix this, or what? I want the laptop to show all the app on the screen without scrolling, so the apps scroll bars are visible without messing about. possible?

Thanks
