If restarting doesn't fix it, try loading a new version of the video card driver. Once you have the right driver loaded, you should be able to go back to a good resolution and everything will appear normal size once more, with luck. robo.	Guest (0)

Therefore let me expand on Robo's instructions: Right click your desktop; Select Properties; Select Settings; Look down for Screen Area and the sliding bar. Move the sliding bar to the right so it reads 800 x 600. Press OK, agree to the messages and accept it. See if this improves it. NOTE:Recent computers and monitors often use the next setting (1024 x 768 pixels) so if it's heading in the right direction but still not as it was before repeat the above steps and change to this.
