HELP, Desktop Icons are huge..

[Guest]

I was playing a game and it closed out because my battery died and the icons
on my desktop grew very large. I am unable to figure out how to get them back
to their normal size..can someone please tell me how? I tried retarting,
turning off the computer, putting the game back in, everything and their
still big..Thanks for the help

I don't know what caused that but could you restore the computer
to a date previous to the problem?

Just in case you can't do a Restore, have you tried changing in Display
Properties?
Right-click the desktop => Appearance tab => Advanced button. Click the
drop-down list box. Select Icon and change the size to about 32 - more
or less to your liking.

It sounds like this is a simple matter of the screen resolutio
changing (as a lot of games like to force their resolution on you
pc)

Try simply right-clicking the desktop and selectin
"Properties." Afterward, go to "Settings" an
change the slider under "Screen Resolution" to somethin
different and click ok to try it out

This may be a different issue, but this is an easy starting point fo
you
