 Topic: Computer help please
Posted: 10 February 2009 at 7:41pm |
I'm pretty dumb when it comes to computers so bare with me please  On a number of websites - OhBaby being one of them, I can only see about 3/4 of the page and have to scroll right to see the rest. It is really frustrating, especially when reading a post as I have to scroll left/right when reading each line. I use Mozilla Firefox but it does the same on IE aswell. I have a wide screen monitor. Would there be some sort of setting somewhere I can change so it all fits on one page?

Go to the start button & then on to your control panel. Then go into Display, Click on the settings tab & you can change your resolution on there
I am on 1024x768 & that seems fine.
Oh I'm not on wide screen so play around with that setting to see which is best for your monitor.

You can also just right click on the desktop and click properties and change the resolution there too.

You can make the print bigger by selecting "view" in your tool bar and then 'zoom in'
It will make the page a bit wider again but not as bad as it was and you can just select 'zoom out' or 'reset' to reset it.
