No, it is not a display resolution issue. 
Windows XP Home SP2 with all updates
Problem began a month or more ago; seemingly out of the blue.
Printing preferences for only printer & Norton Protected recycle bin do not
display all of the contents. These are fixed boxes; cannot be re-sized by
me.
No other property / dialog boxes seem to be affected.
Turning off Norton protection allows all of recycle bin contents to be
displayed.
I uninstalled the printer software. Upon trying to re-install the printer
software, I am informed that c:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt . the syste
file is not suitable for running MS-Dos & microsoft windows applications.
This message appears in normal mode & safe mode. I can re-install the
drives, but not all of the programs. After re-installing the drivers, same
problem.
Things I have tried:
1. scanned for viruses & spyware at Panda & natively with Norton AV 2005,
with all updates;
2. RAM diag;
3. Hard disk drive diag;
4. check disk;
5. sfc /scannow;
6. uninstalled printer software; able to re-install drivers only [ see above
];
7. restore point;
8. safe mode.
9. different screen resolutions;
10. contacted printer tech support; they suggested screen resolution, even
though I noted in my initial report to them that I had tried different
resolutions.
Thanks for your attention to this problem.
