Seems like your resolution somehow got changed to a lower resolution. To check and see just go under your control panel - appearance and personalization - adjust screen resolution. That is the steps for me on Windows 7, not sure of your OS but it should be pretty similar with any Windows OS.






No it did not restart in safe mode but that is what it looks like. I have OS windows 7.



Hmmm,... I do not see "appearance/personalization" under control panel. I have personalization but it is screen themes and screen savers only. Fonts are set to small.
Bring up your start menu and type display into the search bar, a few items should be there, at the top it should just say display which will bring up the main display options box. Look for change display settings.
Also are you in category view or icons for your control panel? Seems to me like you are in icon view and if so you will see an icon that says display.

Strange, not sure why yours wouldn't have a change resolution option easily visible, maybe you have a different version of Windows 7. Try following jaceyLynn's steps clicking on display options, or try advanced options under display if you have that. Every computer has a way to change your resolution so there is a way.







Can we have a screenshot or a picture for reference?
