I have inadvertently reduced the size

17 years ago

of everything that appears on my screen -- pictures, print, everything. I did this once before, and the remedy is very simple if I could only remember what I did to fix it!

I am using AOL. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I cant imagine that you inadvertently got into the resolution and changed it, I know you can increase the size of print by turning the wheel on your mouse when you have a page up

Hold the Ctrl key down while spinning the wheel.

Did you try turning the computer off, and then back on? That helps fix a lot of things.

That did it, randy ca!! I must have struck the Ctrl key while scrolling down the page without realizing what I had done. I could not remember the quick fix but I knew it was really simple. Somebody on this forum helped me with this a long time ago.

Thank all of y'all for responding. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays...
