R60 clear/bright when changing from 1400*1050 to 1024*768

Is it possible to get a clear and bright picture on the screen when changing the standard resolution on 1400*1050 to 1024*768.
Normally the picture becomes grumsy.

Re: Picture on lower Res

The issue is this. All LCD panels have a "Native Resolution" based on how many pixels are in the panel, therefore the images are drawn with this in mind. When you lower the resolution of a panel, you have more pixels than intended to drawn a picture so you end up with fuzzy edges. It's kind of like taking a small picture and blowing it up to a larger size. Some systems will allow you to use a lower resolution by using a smaller area, but there's not really not much point in doing that.
