Everything seems bigger than before

[Guest]

I turned on my computer the other day and everything is bigger than before.
All the windows and icons are bigger, the font, I mean everything. Its not
in safe mode, I know that for a fact. I need to know how to make everything
go back to how it was before. I have tried restoring to an earlier date, but
nothing changed. Please help me.

Change your screen resolution...

For example...

[JS]

Click: Start/Control Panel, then click on the Display icon.
In the Display Properties window click on the Setting tab.
In the bottom left corner you should see a Screen Resolution slider.
If it set to 800x600, then move the slider to the right to 1024x768 and
Apply. If 1024x768 is still not what you want then adjust the slider
accordingly.

Alternate Method:
Right click on the Desktop, select Properties, then click on the Settings
tab.
Adjust resolution slider accordingly.

Your screen resolution has been lowered. Right-click on the Desktop and
select Properties. Go to the Settings tab, and move the Screen Resolution
slider to the right to get the resolution you prefer.
