Hi,

Run msconfig from the start/search line, undo the safe mode option on the
boot tab.

Thanks so much for the reply Rick. I did what you said and unfortunately the
safe mode option wasn't selected. Maybe there is something else that is
causing my windows to not look like its normal setup? Is there anything else
I can try?

Hi Stephanie,

Are you certain you are in safe mode? It should state that in the corners.
Or is it that the screen resolution has changed? Right click the desktop,
choose personalize. At the bottom of the list click on Display Settings.
Slide the resolution setting to the right. If you are unable to change it,
then you may need to reinstall your display drivers.

Rick - You are awesome! You were right on the money. I adjusted the
resolution setting and now my display is back to norm.

THANKS SOOO MUCH!
