Some ideas to try -
To increase the text you read or edit within IE, OE and some other software:
a. press the Ctrl key as you scroll the mouse wheel.
b. click View, Text size (or Font size), and click the size you prefer.
c. press Ctrl/+ or Ctrl/- to increase/decrease text size.

Increase the text size of the Desktop and windows

Right-click the Desktop, click Properties, Settings tab, Advanced button,
change the settings to your liking by selecting from the 'item' box.

Hi "Yummy Mummy",

Re icon size, you could try this:

OE | VIEW | LAYOUT | CUSTOMIZE TOOLBAR | ICON OPTIONS | select SMALL ICONS |
CLOSE | APPLY | OK.

Good Luck. Let us know what worked.

You may have lost your video drivers.. does everything look as large when
you open programs, or is it just the desktop?
 
I have the same problem. Everything looks larger even when I open programs.
Do you have any advice on how to fix it? Its not in safe mode.

Hi MK
Have you not read the previous posts in this thread in that archaic web
interface where you posted?
If you had then you would have seen the suggested fixes for this problem.

Actually I did, thanks. Your advice did nothing, cause I already tried that
yesterday. And nothing happened. I would try the advice that Andy I person
gave but there was the problem of me not knowing what the hell OE meant.
 
Hi "M.K.",

OE = Outlook Express.

Good Luck.

Then why did you not say then I would have avoided a reply.
I do not know of anyone in these groups who is a mind-reader or telepathic
:-(
You gave no info so you got all ideas/solutions.

I think you have the answer to that - has anything worked as suggested?
 
Did you reinstall your video drivers?
Right click a blank spot on the desktop and choose Properties | Settings.
Increase the screen resolution.
