Help! My window size is huge!

Last night I had my laptop plugged into a projector, and today my settings all seem off.  I was able to reduce the size to "normal" on my desktop icons, but whenever I open up a window (whether it's Word, my email, or a browser), the screen and fonts are large, making it so I have to scroll across the bottom to see the whole window.  Any ideas how to get this back to normal size?  I have a Dell vostro 1000. Thank you!

Hi jodifisher,

Welcome to the Dell Community.

Please try and check the resolution for the computer. You might have to go to the display settings in the computer. If you have Windows XP installed, please follow the steps given below.

1. Right click anywhere on the desktop and click on Properties.

2. On the next screen, click on settings and change the screen resolution to the maximum number ( More )

3. Click on Apply and then Ok.

Close all the windows, and restart the computer. Check for functionality after that.

If it still does not work, you might have to install the drivers for the your computer.

Follow the instruction to download and install the driver.
