Screen Area - to larger size
I slid the conrolfor my screen size from 800x 600 pixels
to the smallest size - and clicked on apply - now - I realise I made a BAD decision and I need to slide it back up to 800 x 600 pixels -b but when the grey box comes up and I click on Settings - the greybox is too large and APPLY is not in view - so I cannot click on APPLY to have the change made back? Can someone please help - "dummy mumma" ? Thanks - I await your command |

Thanks - I await your command if you reboot to "safe mode" (tapping F8 while booting) the screen will go back to 640X480 and should let you reset to what you want. |

You'll porbably get the blurb about windows is resizing, blah, blah; click ok to that or hit enter again. So you know, clicking "OK" means apply the changes and close the dailogue box, clicking "Apply" means apply the changes but leave the dialogue box open. MM |

Aside from all the good advice from the others.
Open desktop properties. Click on settings tab. Click on advance button at bottom. In the "display" check " show settings icon on taskbar" Then any screen res. change can be done from taskbar. -----Original Message----- I slid the conrolfor my screen size from 800x 600 pixels to the smallest size - and clicked on apply - now - I realise I made a BAD decision and I need to slide it back up to 800 x 600 pixels -b but when the grey box comes up and I click on Settings - the greybox is too large and APPLY is not in view - so I cannot click on APPLY to have the change made back?
