    Default Laptop Problem - Big Screen

    Hello,

    I am having some problems with my laptop after a restore - Every thing is massive!







    How do I get this back to normal?

    Make sure your gfx drivers are up to date if you wish to make the resolution any different

    which laptop do you have?

    Just a quick fyi, we can't see any size difference with screenshots when it's a resolution problem, the image is just smaller

    And as the others said, install the graphics drivers.

    Also, wut, Norton AND MS Security Essentials, what's going on there?!

    Thanks for all your help - I installed the graphic driver and that solved it!

    I had Norton and MS SE running as Norton came installed with my laptop by default. I removed it last night after I took the screen shots.
