    hi guys

    im having a problem with my laptop .

    last week the text became small..i done a system restore and it fixed the problem but todays its gone back to small text.

    when i say small text what it is, the font is lighter and the text on websites seems like is size 8. i dont rememeber hitting anything to make this happen.

    do you know how i can fix this ?

    Open IE > select view on the toolbar at the top > select Text size and and you have options on the right from a drop down menu, it probably set to Medium before.

    hold down ctrl and move the wheel on your mouse. or hold ctrl and move your finger forward/backwards on the touch pad.

    Is it just in IE you have the problem? Are other programs displaying the right font? How does the font look in Firefox for example?

    its not just the net, its the laptop in general . all the fonts and icons seem "reduced" in size and colour.

    Right click on your Desktop > Select properties > Settings > Change your screen resolution.

    You using Windows XP or Vista?

    What is your display resolution set at? Does adjusting that (Control Panel - Personalisation - Display Settings) make any difference?
