Help - Display screen size suddenly shrunk a little by [email protected]
I have a 19 inch monitor. Until this AM all four sides of windows filled the monitor screen nicely. Now suddenly I have a 1/4" black area on left and right. My monitor's manual controls seem inoperative, so I cannot expand the raster that way. Is there a way, using W98SE function(s)? Thanks

My print que isn't large enough to spool all of the files I need to print in sequence. Is there a way to increase the size of the que so it will print all of the files in stead of just 10 pages or so? Thx Tevibear
