Ok my computer is acting weird. I have very large fonts and huge buttons when I go check my e-mail @ yahoo. And some of the colors are gone from the computer too. Like fonts are only in Black. Does anyone know why? What can I do to fix this?:(

Tell your computer to go on a diet?;)

Sorry, that is my - not too funny and even less helpful - reply.


Hope you get your computer problems solved.

sounds like you may need to reload your video driver - have you changed/installed anything recently? Sometimes after you play games, etc that change your video settings, it may crash/mess up. Is EVERYTHING big - including your desktop icons, etc?

First see if you can change it - right-click on a blank spot on the desktop, click on Properties, go to the Settings Tab, then set the Color Quality to 24-bit, and increase the screen resolution to "800 by 600" or "1024 by 768", then click on OK. It will ask if you want to keep these settings, if it looks OK, click on OK. If this DOESNT work you will have to reinstall the driver.

In MOST cases, you can simply uninstall the driver in the Device Manager and Windows will find and reinstall the driver when you reboot. It is a GOOD idea to make sure you have the original documentation/software for your computer or video card just in case. Right-click My Computer, go to the Hardware tab, click on Device Manager - doube-click on the Display Adapters section, what does it list under there? You can Uninstall it by right-clicking and selecting "Uninstall".

I don't think the driver is the problem. But the web text is too big.
