I hope someone can please advise. I let my young child use the computer.
After he got off, all the windows and text are too large. The boxes are so
large that I have to figure out a way to locate the X to close the window.
How do I restore my past settings? Please HELP!
 
A good number of children's applications will change your screen settings
back to 640 x 480 or other terribly poor resolution [making everthing look
BIG].

Right click on a blank section of the screen, choose properties, click on
the Settings Tab, change screen resolution
 
Thank you, Bar, for the advice. I changed the resolution to 1024 x 768. The
screen has a weird shape to it now. The text and windows are ok, it is the
screen itself. It has an oblong shape. Would you happen to know how I could
correct it?

Bar, I believe I may have resolved my problem. I adjusted the settings on
the monitor. Thank you again for your help.

Children and pc's - a dangerous combination, if you rely on the pc
I bought a second hand old pentium v.cheap, let them do what they like on
that.
