Can someone help me with a problem I created for myseld in
error? The problem is that I went into my control panel
settings and changed my DPI size to 120 and 150% and now I
can not change it back because it is too large. My screen
is a 17" but I can not see the 'ok' box to click ok to
make the change, so I am now stuck with this large size.
Is there any way I can make this change without going
through the control panel? I have tried to change the
vertical and horizontal sizing of the screen with no
luck. I have removed the task bar at the bottom of the
screen and still can not get to the 'ok'prompt. Any help
anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in
adavance.
 
Easy to fix. Just go to Display Properties>settings and increase the screen
resolution. When you change the DPI back to normal you'll be able to see the
buttons and then respond. Then go back to previous screen resolution if
you want.

p.s.; Reason why it is "easy to fix" is because it just happened to me and
it took a while for my to realize I could change it as explained.
 
Gloria-If you change the DPI thro' Control Panel & then
hit Return it should hopefully work as OK is the default.
