I was playing a game the other day on my comp. and it was interupted, I
looked at my deskttop and the icons were too big, and everything else
(including all my programs) look as if they are for a 100 year old person.
ANy suggestions.
*Note- I already tried to resize my desktop icons through the desktop
properties that worked now I need the rest of the comp. sizes fixed.*
By the way I'm using Windows XP version 2002 Home Edition.

I have known some games to change the screen resolution, and it does
not get restored on quitting the game. You might want to check whether
this has happened on your computer.

You may need to update your video driver. I had similar problems, although
not with games. It had to do with a video and something was incompatible
between the video and driver. Its fine after I loaded the new driver.

You got set to a lower resolution. Set it back.
