Why is everything bigger on the monitor now?

[Robert]

Hello, everybody

My monitor is now showing everything way too big. This happened right
after I pressed some wrong buttons on the monitor to turn it on while I was
re-connecting it to the computer.

The type, the graphics, everything is much larger. And much less of it
shows without scrolling the picture.

How can I fix this? What settings are involved? Is it in the monitor or
the computer? I have looked at the monitor's owner's manual and can't
figure it out.

I am using Windows XP Professional. The monitor is a Hanns G 19 inch wide
screen model.

Sounds like you changed the resolution. Check the manual for that setting.
If you can't change it via the monitor buttons: Control Panel | Display |
Settings Tab. Play with it there.

Thanks. I was able to get it back (I think) with the computer. But
that's strange since I didn't change anything on the computer.

You're welcome. /Some/ monitors allow resolution changes with their buttons,
or from the computer. Some, like mine, can only be changed via the computer.
