I am a student and I was asked this question ... "I like a large desktop. Set the display resolution to 1600x1200." Explain the steps it takes to perform this operation .... my question is .... Does 1600x1200 not make everything on the screen smaller than say 800x600?
 
Yes it does...sounds like a trick question unless the resolution is set to something other than 800X600

everything will be smaller on the desktop, but the desktop is larger, more icons will fit on the screen then on a 800x600

to change the screen resolution that high, depends on the capability of the monitor and video car

to change

right click on desktop/properties/setting
slide the marker in "Screen Resolution" to the right, until you get 1600X1200

Also, a good idea to change the refresh rate, if possible (anything below 75 Hertz, can give the user a headache, eye strain
click "advanced"\"monitor" tab\Screen refresh rate

to change the size (make bigger) of the icons
click "General" tab\change the DPI setting
