Computer screen has got bigger :p

[StarsOfCCTV]

I seem to be having a lot of problems with technology recently :p :lol: Everything's got bigger...like the whole computer screens gone on zoom :p I have no idea what I've done..How do I change it back?

The screenprint isn't very good but basically it's like twice the size as before :p

Has your screen resolution changed? Try going to Control Panel > Display > Settings and try changing the resolution on there, to see if it goes back to normal. Dunno if it'll work, but its worth a go :)

[StarsOfCCTV]

Erm...there appears to be only two settings..big and small :p no inbetween :p

[Abigail]

Try this... right click on the desktop > properties > settings > under screen resolution move it to 1280 x 800 pixels.

It's a choice of 800x600 or 1024x768...:p

It's a choice of 800x600 or 1024x768...:p
Have you tired both of them? What are they like?

[StarsOfCCTV]

Huge..or tiny :p I opted for the smaller one for now. In both the screen is slightly widened, the smileys are slightly fatter...if that makes sense :p

I just don't get what I pressed I opened the computer this afternoon and it was just..like this :p

[Abbie]

Lol if nothing else works, you could use as a last resort to restore your computer

[Tori]

This happened to me, unfortunately that was before it blew up, but when reinstalling my laptop it came up like that again, I think you'll have to reinstall the drivers for your screen.

[StarsOfCCTV]

Blew up :eek: :p How do I reinstall the drivers? :o

[Tori]

Did your computer come with disks? one may say drivers on it, and then you can just install the one relating to your monitor. alternatively, try searching on the internet for drivers for your computer/monitor.

[Abbie]

Have you ,managed to fix it?

[StarsOfCCTV]

No...I don't want to take it to a computer shop really, last time it cost an arm and a leg to fix the hard drive :p I might just put up with it, I'll root around the internet for driver information I think :p

[annette_tr9]

make sure it's not a monitor fault first....can you borrow someone elses to plug into your computer to check???

is it a tube monitor??? once they go it all gets big??

def try another monitor before spending out on computer techs!

[StarsOfCCTV]

Whoops :p I knew there was a thread I forgot about :lol: It's gone back to normal....I have no idea what was wrong :lol: But it fixed itself lol, thanks anyway :D
