Reduce The Size Of Screen?
Dec 9, 2012
Yesterday I turned on my desktop PC and the desktop screen, all the icons and the toolbar was much larger than they have ever been before. I have searched the forums and they all say to change the screen resolution. I have checked this and it is 1024 x 768 and the dpi is 100% at 96. I have tried clicking the desktop and scrolling the mouse back too but nothing has worked. Another forum suggested upgrading the graphics driver which I did but that just made it worse so I uninstalled that. I also did a System Restore and that didn't work either.

I have an HP Notebook. On Windows XP, at the bottom right on the Taskbar is an option for the screen size. 100%, 150%, 50% etc.I have a program which is too big for my Notebook screen. Are there any ways I can reduce the size of the text as in XP, so that the program fits my screen?There are a few buttons at the bottom of the program I need to get to but at present, I cant because it is too big for the screen.Any ideas how I reduce it to 50% or 75% as in Windows XP?

I recently got an Acer 1810TZ with win 7 installed. My desktop runs win 2000 and the OS is currently less than 2.5Gb and I consider that bloated as originally it was more like 1.4Gb. I like to image and can easily put that on a dvd even without compressing the file.
On my new Acer the OS is taking up between 12 - 14Gb depending if I have a restore configured. I have partitioned the HD into several partitions. I only keep the OS and absolutely min stuff on my C drive and I have one partition dedicated to the page file only, 3Gb, and have all my programs etc installed on another partition. The recycle bin has also been reduced to 256mb on the C drive
Is there a way to significantly reduce the OS (C drive) to say less than 4Gb ?

I just built a PC and installed Win 7 ultimate on a 240GB SSD (223GB usable) and I noticed after the installation 153GB of the drive is already used which seems like a lot. This is a brand new drive so there shouldn't be anything else on there. I'd like to shrink the footprint a little bit in order to keep the drive from filling up. I have an additional 1 TB drive which I'm going to try to to store most everything on, but I'd like to try and free up the SSD as much as I can.

I am unable to reduce the size of my OS(C) partition to desired size. I've written my recovery disks in case of any problems.
The Shrink C box shows available shrink size is 0. I understand this is because there are unmovable files in the way. One post I saw said to disable system recovery. This is a brand new machine that I want to make dual boot Windows and linux. Want only about 80GB for Windows and 300 for linux. I also saw where someone suggested to use ghost program, then wipe C drive clean and reinstall Windows OS on smaller partition. Sounds drastic.

I have the HP notebook I own adjusted to max resolution (1366 x 768)- "recommended". I have to scroll over to see everything, on any screen. Tried to adjust- other settings only make the screen larger. I want it smaller, so everthing fits on ONE normal page size- no scrolling required to see all of display.

I have just updated my Sony Vaio Laptop to windows 7 from xp home. Everything is working fine apart from the viewable window size. There is a black sourround around any viewable screen about an inch thick, I have tried to adjust the resolution and the max available is 1024 x 768. Font size is set to smaller but still this very annoying screen remains.

I have installed Team Fortress 2 and Combat Arms EU on to my Asus F7Se laptop with the Radeon HD 3400 series graphics card and when ever I run either game the screen resolution goes all screwy! It is like when you are watching a 4:3 TV program on a 16:9 TV.
All of my settings are correct within Windows and the game. I have noticed that when I start a game there is a message that windows is changing the theme back to basic (or something like that).

When I open WMP12 with a shortcut, it opens a nearly full-size window in the center of my screen. When I open a wmv file such as I get with an email, the window that opens is in upper left corner of my screen and is about 2" square. I always drag it to nearly full-screen size and watch it and then close, hoping that it will retain the final size. Not so. I have looked for settings to correct this in both Windows and WMP, but have obviously missed something, as often happens. Suggestions?

I will be using my laptop in a variety of settings (Word, FB, IE browsing etc.) when suddenly the font will change size and become very small or the screen will become quite large and my scroll bars will completely disappear. I use the mouse pad and do not use a mouse. Is there a setting to change or am I doing something specific.

Windows 7 is taking the screen and reducing the size by 50%. It then shows two identicle screens on my laptop monitor. I checked my settings and it just recognizes the one laptop monitor. How do I make the screen full size and just show one of them?

I was wondering if there is a way in which you can change the size of the user picture in the logon screen... What I mean here... is that, no matter the picture you use for it, the logon screen shows it at a "fixed" size... but sometimes, it is shown in a little frame, while in other PC's, you can see it bigger... I don't know if it's matter of resolutions... I hope I'm getting understood. is there a way to control or change that?See ya!!!

Ive got a dell mini running windows 7. Some of the windows wont appear in their full size on my screen. for example, on open office org, I have a document that needs recovering, and every time i open the program the window pops up. i cant get to the ok button though, because the full window doesn't appear on my screen size.

I experience a serious reoccurring issue with Windows 7 window management. It happens 1 in 5 times when logging in after locking the screen (or putting the machine to standby).
Windows are restricted to a part of the whole desktop. Please note that the explorer window in the attached picture is maximized, but not occupying the whole desktop as expected! (In fact I can move windows to the right side, but not maximize to it. Also when moving windows there, it snaps *not* to the edge of the screen but to to the same wrong line where the edge of the maximized window is.)
What is this? What causes this? How can I disable this? Only restart helps by now..
