buckee Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Re: Computer?? Go to your desktop, and right-click on an empty spot Now go to properties Go to settings, and turn your resolution down, if it is up . I have mine at 800 X 600, so I don't get that black bar in here. If the Fonts are too small, go to Appearance, instead of settings, and change the font size to large or medium, if it is set at small.

M00N Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Re: Computer?? If you are using Windows XP and trying to change the screen resolution and text size didn't help it may be the DPI setting of the display got changed. Read this link on how to access those settings. [LINK] See if maybe they are set to Custom size or Normal size DPI. If it is set to Custom size change it back to the Normal size setting in that drop down and see if that fixes the problem. If it's already set to Normal size change it to Large size once see if that improves the problem. If it doesn't fix or improve the problem you can always reverse these changes the same way you changed them. I keep mine on Normal size DPI. These settings control how many Dots Per Inch your monitor displays things in, thus controlling the size it displays things in evenly throughout all displayed items. If you just want bigger font or different resolution the way Buckee suggested is the route to go instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
