Force High Resolution - v1.65 Categorie: System Tools
Screen Shot
Many applications display poorly on Pocket PC VGA as they don't support VGA mode, but use "double pixelisation". There's a work-around for this problem without having to go to "Full VGA" (as SE_VGA and OzVGA do). But this requires adding a little file next to each specific executable.
ForceHiRes has the same effect, without having to add the famous file time and again (10k each time), all done from a System Control Panel (with a simple .cpl file placed in \Windows). You only need to add to the list the executable that you want to force to hi-res mode: simple, quick & effective.

Note: if you don't use File Dialog Changer, you will need to download the gsGetFile.dll from the author's website and copy it to the \Windows directory on your PocketPC.

You might need gsGetFile.dll to download and copy into your Windows folder as well. It can be downloaded from the developer's page (for MIPS/SH3 and (Strong)Arm) as well.

ForceHiRes doesn't handle certain executables (like iexplore.exe, Pocket IE) because it thinks it is already a Hi-resolution application. But PIE does display things better in true VGA mode compared to QVGA (compare two images - in QVGA there is quite clear pixelation). Is there a way round this, or is it back to SE_VGA?

In some applications, icons on the toolbar will shrink when ForceHiRes is applied. Sometimes elements in dialogue boxes may overlap, as well; it all depends on the application.
