screen-resolution

I have DG43NB mobo, that have onboard X4500 graphics. Its supports 1900 x 1200 Resolution. But my LCD monitor is only capable of resolution 1024 x 768. I have to test some websites in resolution 1900 x 1200, how can i test?

Is there any concept of virtual desktop using which i can simulate resolution 1900 x 1200. I have windows xp installed.

thanks
