iGO for PC big resolution

Anyone managed to have the iGO for PC working in 800x600?
I have mine working perfect but only in map mode and cockpit mode. The start screen (the one with cockpit, map etc in circular arangement) is still small and the menus also. I am not that upset about the menus, being small a lot of map is visible. I need to change the start screen...

Thank you for any advice.

The HP skin is 800*600. Search for another thread.

Edit: HP skin is for iGo 8, For iGo 2006 try this skin - http://rapidshare.com/files/89736535/data.zip.html

Have not seen your edit. i will try now the skin for iGO 2006.
If will work, i will be the most happy man

Edit. I have tried, and it seems that "wants" to start in big mode but i get an error and get closed.

Failed to open uil/main_320_240.ui exiting application


Is there anything i should have in sys.txt ?

Yeah, try adding vga=1 in sys.txt which should double it.

240*400
Landscape=1 changes it to 400*240
VGA=1 doubles the size, i.e. 800*480

In short: IT WORKS !
Even if i found no way to make it in 800x600, this 800x480 it is much better than my previous one. I tried 300x400 in hope i can trick it to double but i get the error again
Many thanks for your help!
