UNWANTED REFOMATTING OF DISPLAY

[Guest]

MY DAUGHTER DOWNLOADED A FREE DISNEY GAME (TOON TOWN) FROM THEIR WEBSITE, AND
IT REFORMATTED MY DISPLAY BY STRETCHING AND OVERSIZING ALL WINDOWS AND DIALOG
BOXES.
I'VE RESTORED THE SCREEN RESOLUTION TO THE ORIGINAL 1280 x 1024, AND THE
DESKTOP RESOLUTION REFLECTS THAT. ALL APPLICATION WINDOWS AND DIALOG BOXES
ARE STILL SUPER-SIZED THOUGH. I'VE TRIED ALL I CAN WITH THE DISPLAY CONTROL
PANEL.
COULD SOMEONE KINDLY GIVE ME ADVICE???

THANK YOU, MICHAEL

SORRY & THANKS CAREY. I HAD ALREADY CORRECTED THAT (IT WAS 120). I HAD
NEVER TOUCHED THAT AREA BEFORE, THEREFORE, I ASSUME THAT WAS PART OF THE
DAMAGE DONE. THERE MUST BE SOMETHING ELSE SOMEWHERE. ANY MORE IDEAS????
