Consider the screen to be a coordinate grid, with each pixel at a lattice point and the bottom left point at the origin. Each 19 × 19 19\times 19 window can be defined uniquely by its bottom left corner, which can be placed at any point ( m , n ) (m,n) such that m , n 2018 19 + 1 = 2000 m,n\leq 2018-19+1 = 2000 . Thus, there are 200 0 2 = 4000000 2000^2 = \boxed{4000000} possible windows.
