How to Run Modern Windows 8 Apps on a Netbook
 

Modern-style apps in Windows 8 need a screen resolution of at least 1024×768. Unfortunately, many netbooks have a 1024×600 resolution. If you have a netbook, there’s a chance you can bypass this limitation and run modern apps anyway.

If your screen resolution is too low, you’ll see a message saying the app cannot open. If no higher screen resolutions are appear available, you can try this trick to make Windows think your screen resolution is higher.
