[question] Resolution In Laptop

I've got compaq evo 14' with graphics ati mobility U1. max resolution which I can make is 1024x768. I would like make 1280x1024. I've red that it's possible to make it with registry moding:

File win.ini, edit and make resolution as you wish.

Line:

for example. pnpdrvr.drv 1024x768x24...

it should be enough

or

regirtry edit and:

1.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\

Display\0000\DEFAULT

change DDC to "0",

RefreshRate to "85" or another

Change Mode "24,1024,768" to "24,1280,1024".

2.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\Display\

0000\MODES\here search 24\1024,768

RefreshRate = 85

3.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Config\0001\Display\Settings

paste file *.reg to autostart or to file win.ini line Load=Regedit /s

C:\plik.reg or start it in safe mode

looks easy but I'm affraid that only what it makes thease are problems and registry reset. the questions are:

1. do you think that it works with my hardware?

2. (when first step doesn't work) do you have some ways to make higher resolution on my hardware?

If the max resolution is set to 1024x768, there is a reason for that. If the laptop could handle a higher resolution, I think they would have set a higher resolution as maximum. If the monitor cant handle more than 1024x768, and you set it higher, you could screw the monitor realy bad, and you might never get it back to normal again.
