Compaq Presario 1685 Laptop with 3D Rage LT Pro Video.

Resolution was set at 800 x 600 but was too big for the screen. We have to scroll left-to-right on websites. Solution? Increase resolution to 1024 x 768 of course, right? Well, that makes everything even bigger instead of smaller as I expected. Now I have to scroll around more! And even the desktop won't fit on the screen... What am I missing here?
