Sometimes when a game is used on my computer, the display
stays enlarged, even after the game is closed. I can
usually fix this by going to Settings and changing the
display settings, but this time it seems to be stuck. I
have restarted and tried everything else I can think of. I
don't like having to scroll sideways to see my entire
windows.

Please help!!

Cindy, which game or game are you having problems with, and are you using
Compatibility Mode if it is an older game? You can adjust such things as
which operating system it expected (the program was originally written for),
the number of colors and the display resolution. Also, have you updated
your graphics card drivers lately from the manufacturer's web site?

You have a poorly designed program or it's not meant for XP.
