Why did everything get small?

I just got an early birthday present from my husband–a new laptop! I’ve never had a laptop before, and I’m still figuring out the mouse pad thingy. I was moving the cursor around and probably tapping the pad or hitting either of the side buttons, and everything on the page got really small. Does anyone know what I did and how I can fix it?

Answer #1

press Ctrl and either the + or - to make screen bigger or smaller that should work

Answer #2

Yes! That must be what I did. I have no idea how, but it’s fixed now. Thanks, guys. I knew you could help me. :)

Answer #3

View - Zoom - Zoom in or Zoom out…does that do it? I’m on Mac…but, you shoudl have a similar toggle…

It sounds like the screen resolution is wrong…here’s how you can change it in Windows Vista: http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/help/0386b009-5f30-45c7-80c8-ff0395cc24091033.mspx

If that’s not it, lemme know & I’ll try to come up with another idea.

Answer #5

Only like that on FunAdvice?

Try view - Zoom - Zoom in

Answer #6
