Large text and can't view all window

[Phil Carter]

Have just reinstalled xp pro and now certain windows and
programs open with larger text and colour changes. I can't
view the whole window and some instruction boxes therefore
can't be operated. For example my anti virus window
originally opened with a yellow and white background with
black text. It now opends with a grey and white background
with larger black text.
Have checked the DPI setting at 96 and changed all font
sizes to small, but with no effect. I must be missing
something. All else works OK. Your help please. Thank you.
Phil.

Rightclick an open area near center of screen/click Properties
Then Appearance tab/now you can change Font to normal, etc.
After you make changes, click Apply and OK.

*SIGH* When will folk realise that Windows won't miraculously install all
their device drivers for them and that they actually have to do some work
themselves?! Reinstall the driver for your graphics adapter.

Interpretation of Miss Perspiration Stink: Dàmn! I have to *think*!I'm just
glad it's something really simple even someone as stooooopid as me can answer
it! *WHEW*
