Windows 8 works fine on most of the Netbooks. But some Netbooks have 10 inch screen with
the resolution 1024×600 maximum while Metro UI Apps need the least resolution of 1024×768
to open. Here’s I’ll explain you how to solve “Windows 8 apps not working” Problem.

Okay, let me clear your doubts about Windows 8 that it works smoother than previous versions
of windows in Netbooks. So there’s nothing about low RAM or Atom Processor. It’s only
because of the low screen resolution and at the end of reading this article, problem will be
solved.
The minimum requirement for running Windows 8 Metro Apps is that you need a display with
screen resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels or more. The maximum screen resolution of most 10 inch
netbooks is 1024 x 600 pixels which is lower than the required resolution.
Solution for Low Screen Resolution Error for Metro Apps
Most notebooks have maximum screen resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels which is lower than the
minimum required resolution to run Metro Apps of Windows 8. There is a simple modification
requited in Windows registry to let you increase the screen resolution of any system. Use the
below mentioned steps to increase screen resolution.
1. First install the latest Intel Graphics driver downloaded from Intel’s website
2. Restart
3. Hit Win + R keys together on your netbook’s keyboard
4. Type “regedit” without quotes in the dialogue box

5. Locate the following location in Registry window,
6. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E 968E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}000
7. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E 968E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}001
8. You may have only one registry key (especially in Acer machines) mentioned above,
don’t worry. Just follow below steps
9. In both of these locations, find “Display1_DownScalingSupported” in the DWORD list
10. Right-click on the DWORD and select modify, change the value from 0 to 1 for that
DWORD
11. Restart your netbook after closing the registry window
12. Now open screen resolution window (Control Panel\Appearance and
Personalization\Display\Screen Resolution) on your netbook and there you can see more
option to choose from. For example, you may choose 1024 x 768 pixels
13. Select that resolution and apply the changes

14. To get back the original pixel, just hit the Intel display app and select 1024 x 600.
As now you netbook’s display resolution is equal to the minimum required screen resolution for
running Metro Style apps of Windows 8, you may run the apps without any problem.
