The package: firmware-misc-nonfree, includes i915 firmware so perhaps install that if not already installed.

I installed firmware-misc-nonfree fist then rebooted and the screen has the same 640 X 480 resolution. I then installed xserver-xorg-video-intel. That was installed when I installed firmware-misc-nonfree . The screen resolution remain small.

Is there any additional information you could use to help me resolve this?

Great you solved it. A more recent kernel is often a solution for getting newer hardware to run.

Please edit the title of your first post and add prefix [Solved] so it may help others with the same issue.
