Hi,
I am running win 10 on a dell Inspiron 1. it's 5 years old approx.
Just lately, on start up the screen display is way bigger than it should be.
Normal size of the icons is 8 or 9 per column.
When it goes wrong it is 6 per column, and when I open a tab, everything is oversized and in a different font.
The 3dots on the top right says 100% but if you decrease to 90% - that is the old normal !
The tabs on the top of the screen are also bigger and in a different font.
However on restart, sometimes everything is smaller ( 10 icons per column )
Sometimes it's ok !!

I have not changed anything or downloaded anything.

I'm at a complete loss..

Any ideas / suggestions would be most welcome.

Thanks

Jay
