My screen resolution on my laptop has suddenly gone haywire making the screen huge. I went into control panel but couldn't find how to change the screen resolution. Does anyone know how to do it?

Have you deleted anything lately Scribs? You may have got rid of a driver.....the bottom right hand of your screen will let you bring the resolution down to a comfortable % and you should contact the maker of the laptop and they can actually fix it when you are online....I deleted a driver by mistake and a similar thing happened to me....took a couple of days to sort though.

right click on your desktop screen and go to properties

then click on settings and it will come up the resolution... i have mine on 1400 x 1050 pixels
