    Default Help! My window shrunk!

    Last time I switched off the computer, it automatically downloaded a bundle of MS upgrades(?)

    Just switched on again, and instead of a window that fills my 17" monitor, I now have a smaller one with a lot of black around it.

    I'm guessing it's caused by something that's been changed by the MS upgrades, but also, today, I swapped over to Telstra broadband. Don't thnk that's what caused it, as it wasn't like this earlier on.

    Any clues as to what needs to be done to get back to a full sized window?

    check all your display properties (right click on desktop and properties) And the buttons on your monitor.

    When I got my first laptop, I turned it on one day and the display didn't work at all. :mad: Completely blank. Went back to where I got it ... that's where I discovered the little dial that changes the brightness
