Web Site Displays

I just finally upgraded to Windows XP Pro and downloaded SP2. I also
downloaded SP2 for IE and my web pages are not displaying correctly. I am
getting overwrite on MSN.com and my other pages are not resizing to fit my
screen.

My display is set at 800x600 and my text size in IE is "smallest"

I am a neophite with XP (having used Windows 98 on all my machines up until
this time) and I know there is probably some field I have either checked or
unchecked that affects my web site display.

Any suggestions are bound to help.
 
Hi XP Rookie :-)

Try the following and see it helps:

Check in IE>Tools>Internet Options>General>Accessibility
and Control Panel>Accessibility Options>Display

For normal viewing nothing should be checked in these sections. Also check
the setting in Control Panel>Accessibility Options>Display is set to Windows
Standard and make sure the High Contrast is not checked.

Go to>View>Encoding
Make sure the Auto Select is not checked, and language you want to use is
selected.

Hope this helps.

Worked great...the "high contrast..off" and "auto select..off" worked to
refit my web page displays.
