     QRes A freeware utility including MFC source code
to quickly change screen depth and Resolution

Tired of using the Windows Control panel or QuickRes to change your graphics cards
screen depth & resolution. This program uses the command line sent to it to change the
screen depth & resolution. For example to change into 1024 * 768 in 24 bit color, just use
the command line "QRes.exe 1024 768 24". With this structure you can create a number of
shortcuts to QRes on your desktop using different command lines which will allow you to
change mode with a simple double click on your desktop. By setting up shortcut keys in the
shortcut file to QRes you can quickly change modes by just using the keyboard only. The
size of the binary file itself is only 6K. 

The enclosed zip file contains the QRes source code , a very handy MFC class to wrap
access to the two underlying API's QRes uses and a prebuilt binary version of QRes. The
enclosed binary requires that you have the MFC 4.2b DLLs already installed. If you haven´t
already got them on your machine (MFC42.DLL in your Windows system directory), then
grab them from Microsoft´s web site at
http://www.microsoft.com/visualc/download/mfc42cab.htm. 

History

25 September 1997

     Changed name "QuickerRes" to "QRes" to avoid conflict with an similarly named third
     party product. 
     Now supports setting the monitor frequency (NT only according to the documentation). 
     Inclusion of a new console mode program called QList (binary & source code) with
     enumerates all the video modes available. Comes in helpful if QRes is reporting that
     some options you select is unavailable.
