Recently everything on screen and in websites has gone big and I can't read things properly. I have not changed settings or fonts - word/excel are ok - just what I view on screen.

ok, if its just your website browsing then it can be easly sorted. If all the text has become large then;
1: click a blank space of any website,
2: hold down ctrl and scroll with your mouse.
You can adjust the text size here.
If this is not the case and your using the new internet explorer then at the bottom of the internet explorer there is a maginifing glass with a percentage next to it, make sure it is set to 100%. If not, click it and select 100%.
If its not website browsing then it willl be your screen resolution, right click on the desktop, properties then setting and change the resolution to the recommended resolution for your monitor.
Hope this helps!!

Were you holding down the Cntrl key while you were using your middle scroll wheel? This will change the size of the font on the web pages to REALLY LARGE or VERY small depending on the direction you move the wheel while holding down the CTRL (Control) key.
If that doesn't work, then throw the laptop against the wall and scream "DEATH TO MICROSOFT"
That usually works for me...

Try right clicking on the desktop, then going to properties. In the "Display properties" window click on the "settings" tab. Try adjusting the resolution. If you know what resolution your screen is, set it to that if it isnt already. I don't know if this will work....

turn the alternative up. On XP ideal click the pc > homes > settings tab > flow that slider bar to the nicely suited till a minimum of 1024x768. On vista ideal click the pc > homes > reveal settings > flow the slider to the nicely suited till a minimum of 1024x768.

go to start go to control panel go to display go to settings and check what your screen resolution is set at. less 800X600 is bigger than more 1024X768 pixs.
Hope this helps
