This trick was pubished for the first time at Todo Pocket PC (http://www.todopocketpc.com/foro/showthread.php?p=233114#post233114) by the creator of SE_VGA, a very good friend of mine and contributor to my program
Tweaks2k2 (http://www.tweaks2k2.com/downloads.htm).

I'm sure that many of you know about ActiveSync Remote Display, a program that is part of Microsoft's PowerToys (http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/6/0/7606be4b-eea7-4515-83a0-81d7d9ac9ce1/WindowsMobilePowerToys.msi) that let you control your Pocket PC from your PC while it's connected using ActiveSync.

But I'm sure that many of you were disappointed to see how bad the screen of any VGA device looks in our PCs:

Well, there is a solution for this problem. All you need to do is apply the VGA Brute Force hack from Tweaks2k2 (http://www.tweaks2k2.com/downloads.htm) to a file called cerdisp2.exe located in the Windows Folder in our PocketPCs (if ActiveSync Remote Display is installed already).

And this is how the VGA screen of our Pocket PC is going to look the next time you use ActiveSync Remote Display:

Useful tip, is not it? ;)
