I am using a Windows XP machine with a monitor that is 1900 by 1200. When I remote log in to another XP machine and to a MS server it opens a screen with the same resolution as the local computer, but the screen is too large. When the remote screen is maximized there are still vertical and horizontal scroll bars and the entire screen cannot be seen.

When I right click on the desktop or go through control panel to set the screen resolution on the remote device it shows only the current setting and the tool to change the resolution is disabled.

How can I change the resolution of the remote log in screen to eliminate the need to constantly scroll the screen? I would like the remote screen to be the standard 1025 x 768 or something close to that.
 
Hello M. Knorr,

Thanks for taking the time to post.
