Hi! My bloody cat walked over my laptop, which must have changed a setting, and now everything looks a lot bigger. It's not only Firefox or IE, it's everything on my desktop.
Changing font size doesn't help.
Any idea what I can do to put it back to normal? I can't do a system restore, as it says there is no scheduled date this month. Argh! Help?

Sounds like your cat has changed your resolution. Right click on the desktop and choose properties. From there choose the settings tab and move the slider where it says screen resolution to the right to make things smaller.

That's one clever cat you have!
Hi max,

right click anywhere on your desktop and select properties, click on the settings tab at top and slide the screen resolution slider up

Yay! Thanks so much Squarebear and Chuck! I'd never have thought of it. :O)
Thanks guys!
NO problem. Certainly don't even think of system restore for something like that.

Chuck, Squarebear beat you by one whole minute. Must try harder! ;O)
It's past old Chuck's bedtime. He's normally got his Horlicks and slippers on by now :-)
