Hello.

I recently changed my custom dpi settings in the Display
Properties (advanced) to 125% to make it easier to see my
icons. I am running at 1280x1024 resolution. To enable
it, I went to display properties, Settings, Advanced,
General Tab, and set my dpi to custom (125%).

Now when I try to change it back to 100%, it gives me
this message:

"Windows Setup has not changed the requested settings.
You may not have the required Administrative Privilege to
install or uninstall new files or drivers. Please
contact your Arministrator."

The problem is that I am the only user at home, and I
have Admin rights.

I am running Windows XP Pro.
 
Did you ever find an answer to this? I'm having the same problem.
