Default Large Display - How to shrink

Someone touched too many keys on my home computer and now
everything is LARGE on the display. Icons are larger,
background picture, etc. When opening applications, they
do not fit on the screen. Tried to reset by changing fonts
to smaller size, worked at first, but after shut down, the
large ones came back.. Someone mentioned using the
COntrol-Page DOwn keys to shrink the size. Can anyone
confirm this works, or offer another solution.
Thanks

Default Large Display - How to shrink

Right click the desktop, properties, settings and set the screen resolution
at 800 x 600.
