I recently had to format and re-install my windows xp after the installation however none of my fonts or icons are the same and the words are very small for me to see.... I am currently running 2 different user accounts on this machine and before the format i was able to change the font size and desktop size on either account to different settings, now for some reason I cant remember how to do it and if i change one then the other is messed up. I also have stalling issues now with firefox (even after doing the tweaks located in speeding up firefox) that I didnt have before format.....
If anyone could help me plz that would be wonderful

Did you install all Windows updates?
Any errors in Device Manager?

Did you install all Windows updates?
Any errors in Device Manager?

[dolface755]

all updates done thru dec 22/08 and only error in device manager is USB hub and that's only cause i havent found the drivers again for it other then that no hdware conflicts or missing drivers

Are you talking about font, and text under desktop icons?
What's the screen resolution set to?

[dolface755]

screen res is 1024 x 768
and its all fonts in every program even firefox and I.E. fonts are small and look strange

Do you remember, if you had same resolution before formatting?

[dolface755]

resolution..... monitor....driver settings etc are all the same as prior to formatting..... i'm wondering if windows installed correctly or i missed something because now I also can not use remote assistance any longer
whenever i recieve requests for remote it says its not installed or has been disabled on my computer... n yet its listed as active in the system settings

I can't think of anything else, but your recent Windows reinstall went bad.
