Hi everyone I wanted to access my pc through my ipod so I needed it to be more zoomed in.
Anyway I think it was the font size I changed I think I used it to much

Now I cant get back to the Control Panel to change it:mad:
Any1 know how to fix it? I would be very grateful for your help..

are you saying what is on screen is too large or small?
Have you tried using "CTRL" on the right side of your keyboard (with one finger pressed on it) and "+" or "-" (with another finger pressed on either) ?

This gives you the ability to zoom in and out sometimes, especially on web pages by the way too.

What's the operating system? 7?

Right-click - Select "Personalise" (at the bottom) - Select "Display" (bottom left) and see next window that opens.

OK so I right clicked on the desktop went to properties but then still couldnt access the options :mad:
So then I right clicked on the top of the properties window and it gave me option to move it anyway I was able to move it just about enough to the options in the display:D

Then I couldnt reach the apply button:rolleyes: so I JUST pressed return a couple of times an it then restarted my computer...

Now everythings back to normal:)

By pressing the tab button on your keyboard repeatedly by the way, would have been able to move from item to item on the screen till you though you were at the right one and hit "return".

Glad to hear your sorted anyway. Thats the main thing.
