Hi! I just had to reintall Windows XP Professional on my computer. But now everything is huge. To see a webpage, I have to scroll from left to right. I have gone under Display Settings, and the resolution is set at 640 x 480. The tab that you drag to the right to increase the resolution won't let me drag it anywhere. And under Advanced, it won't let me click on the DPI either. It says it's at 96 dpi, whatever that means.

Any help would be SO greatly appreciated. I am going crazy here.
Thanks so very much!

Louise
