One day my computer froze up and in my frustration I ran my fingers over the
keyboard of my laptop. After that my screen went blank and everything on the
screen got huge! I don't know how or why it happened, but I was wondering if
anyone knew what to do??? When I tried to adjust the display to the normal 96
dpi size, it was already selected and I don't know what to do. Please help
me!!!

If "everything" got bigger, you may have reset the screen resolution to a
lower setting. The first place to check is in the Display Properties. Right
click a blank area of the Desktop and select Properties/Settings Tab. In the
screen Resolution section, move the slider to a higher setting and click
Apply/OK.

If this does not fix the problem, then you may have hit a hotkey for one of
the Accessibility options. Open Control Panel/Accessibility Options/Display
Tab. If the Use High Contrast option is selected, remove the checkmark.
Click the Settings Button and remove the checkmark from the Use Shortcut
option to prevent this from happening the next time you get frustrated. :)
