if its ur text, hold ctrl and use the mouse scroll thingy to change it.

if its EVERYTHING, change your screen resolution. right click on your desktop, click on "Properties", go to the "Settings" tab, and move the slider towards "More". Mine is at 1024 x 768 pixels.

right click on your desktop and then click on 'personalise', then click on 'display settings' and change your screen resolution to as high as it will go and it should sort it - i had the same problem so googled it and found this question... and then figured out that a game i had played on had somehow messed with my screen resolution

hope this helps

(this is for Vista by the way)

I'm having the same trouble but when I try to adjust the resolution and press apply it doesn't work! it just reverts back to the lowest resolution. I've tried it by just pressing OK as well - it goes through all the right process and asks if I want to keep these display setting (yes) but still doesn't save them - HELP PLEASE!

Answer
