Hard drive 40GB with 33.6GB Free Space. Norton Anti-Virus Version 9.05.15 - updated. When I switched on the monitor this morning the resolution seemed to have magnified. From what I understand, it is "on-board display"? I usually have the display set on 800 x 600 and High Color (16 bit). Display: E70-3 on SiS 620. I fiddled with the buttons on the front of the monitor and even the minimum settings don't bring the desktop down to size. So I then uninstalled and installed the display drivers and no change. Then I restarted in Safe Mode and the screen was magnified under Safe Mode as well. I hadn't installed or updated any software or hardware before this problem but installed and ran Ad-Aware after this problem and still no change. How can I get my display back to normal?	Raewyn (946)

I would reinstall (if theyre still uninstalled) the videocard drivers again too. In safe mode everything is usually big, as nothing is loaded in safe mode, besides files, to get into it.

There was no change to the display in normal mode or safe mode. I think there may be something wrong with the monitor itself? It's like everything is out of whack and even the windows look wonky???
