I don't have a clue as to what I really did on here, but everything is so tiny (words,icons,you name it)that I am having a hard time seeing it.I just want to put it back to the way it was.I don't know anything to speak of about a computer, I barely know how turn it on. The one thing that I have done, was do a restore to an earlier date and that did no good. Can someone out there PLEASE help me with this problem?????

    Right click the desktop, a menu will pop up, click Properties, another menu will pop up, click Appearance, where it says Font Size click the down arrow and select a larger font, click Apply.

    Simple, Go to start menu, settings, control panel, display, settings tab: then lower your pixels by shifting the slider to the left

    Change the resolution. Point the most at the background screen and press right mouse button. Than press Properties.And in Properties choose Settings Tab. Change the resolution to the left and press apply.This should work.

    Right-click on the desktop, choose properties, and then look for the "settings" tab (to the far right). Here you can change the resolution, I suggest you drag the slider to the left, which will make the screen "bigger". Or did I misunderstand you?

    It sounds like your desktop settings are at a high resolution. To resolve this, follow these steps. 1) minimize all open windows, but this one {click the minus sign at the top right of each} 2) on this window, make it so you can see the desktop {click the button beside the minimize button till it has only 1 box} 3) right click on an empty space on your desktop background 4) left click on 'properties' 5) left click on the 'settings' tab 6) under 'Screen Resolution' move the bar to the left. 7) click 'Apply' 8) click 'OK'

    Right click on desktop. Click Properties. Go to Settings tab, and move the slider where it says "screen resolution." Experiment with different levels until you get what you want.

    The previous poster was close... Click the right-hand mouse button on an empty section of your desktop, and left-click Properties. Then click the Settings tab at the top of this windows, and under "Screen Resolution" on this page, select 1024x768 or 800x600. Click OK at the bottom, and your screen should chage back to what you want.
