Resolution setting apparatus, resolution setting method, and recording medium recording a resolution setting program when a television is used as a monitor of a computer

A resolution setting apparatus of a computer comprising:

• a determining unit to determine before an operation for accepting terms and conditions of a license agreement of a first operating system software to be installed on the computer is performed, whether a digital interface connects the computer to a monitor and whether a display mode of the monitor is an overscan mode;
• a setting unit to cause, when the determining unit determines that a digital interface connects the computer to the monitor and the display mode of the monitor is an overscan mode, a display mode of a second operating system software or a set of software tools corresponding to the first operating system software to be set to an overscan mode;
• and
• a reflecting unit to reflect the display mode, which is set by the setting unit, on settings of the first operating system software.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium on which is recorded a program for causing a processing unit to execute a control process for setting a display resolution of a computer, the control process comprising:

• determining, before an operation for accepting terms and conditions of a license agreement of a first operating system software to be installed on the computer is performed, whether a digital interface connects the computer to a television and whether a display mode of the television is an overscan mode;
• setting, when the determining determines that a digital interface connects the computer to a television and the display mode of the television is an overscan mode, a display mode of a second operating system software or a set of software tools corresponding to the first operating system software to be set to an overscan mode;
• and
• reflecting the display mode, which is set by the setting, on settings of the first operating system software.
