Help -- My display type and icons are HUGE

[denise532]

I was trying to install "incredimail" (an email system), but it looked like
it was going to take up too much space so after installing it, I removed it
to the recycle bin.

Then when I restarted my computer later -- HUGE fonts, HUGE icons, HUGE
screens -- I did try the "appearance" option but that didn't do a thing. It
says mky font size is normal. I tried clicking on that again. Nothing. I
tried changing the font size there to "large" and nothing happened.

I read somewhere else about restoring -- should I try that? How do I do
that?

This is truly maddening as nothing fits anymore on my tiny 12" screen.

Thanks,

denise

Right click on the desktop and select "Properties", select the "Settings"
tab and change the screen resolution, then click OK.

Hi,

thanks for replying. I did try that properties, settings thing several
times and no luck.

However, I just finished doing the RESTORE thing and hooray -- it worked.
And how my type looks teeny. It will take a bit for my eyes to adjust.

Thanks for your advice.
