    Hi, I don't know whether this is even possible. I use XP & run my computer at 1280x960 and will soon move to an even higher resolution, but need to be able to set some windows (mostly browsers) to the size of older resolution sizes (such as 1024x768). Why? Because I want to see what changes to my website look like at the lower resolution, without changing my monitor resolution.
    Is this possible?

    In IE7 you can use the Zoom In/Out feature that's in the lower right hand corner that basically simulates changing resolutions.

    Both FrontPage and MS Expression Web have the facility to preview in one or more browsers at different resolutions.

    Does not your web software offer the same facility?
