I'm Back
Last tuesday evening I got a nasty virus on my computer. My background disapeared and said "warning please install an anti-spyware" Sysytem restore did not even exist on my computer. My documents and pictures were fine but I could not get on the internet. Geek squad said they could fix it in 1 1/2 days and it ended up taking them more than a week. I just got it back tonight and its like a completely different computer. Everything is so small I practically need a magnifying glass to read anything -I tried to go to display under the control panel and change pixel settings and I can get it to a good size but then the pictures are either short and fat or tall and skinny. The only "normal" looking setting is really small.
Glad to be back. Missed out on way more than I can ever catch up on. If there are any computer guys that can help me out with my settings let me know what I can do. I'm wondering if its a new version of windows? do I need a larger monitor now? Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Glad to see your back Wolf, You did miss a bunch of stuff this past week, I can't help much with your pc as they seem to have a mind of their own. Mine has been acting up a bit but still working for the most part.

Welcome back WM. Try holding the control button down and rolling the wheel on the mouse.

Thanks guys. I got the words so I can read them. They are little larger than before but the pics and the avatars are a little smaller than before. Wish I could get a happy medium.
