Acer Aspire One D257-13450 fixed size window too big for the screen

I have an Acer Aspire One D257-13450 running Windows 7 Starter Edition, and when I open some windows (e.g. Brother MFC 990CW control of scanning parameters), the window is too large to be completely displayed on the screen. The bottom of the window is hidden under the bottom edge of the physical screen.  The window can me moved around the screen as usual but I can't move it to the top of the screen enough to see the bottom of the window - this is where the selection of options for this window buttons. This particular window has only a close button in the upper right and not the usual buttons Minimse or restore down. I have connected a monitor external and also adjusted the screen resolution and nothing doesn't affect the ability to resize the window and get off at the buttons of options I need. I was able to guess the buttons under the edge of the screen by using the tab key to tab through all the options in this window, but it is not very satisfactory. Any suggestions please?

Many netbooks with Starter have only a 1024 x 600 screen - if the program needs a minimum of 1024 x 768 it may not work or may not display all. But it wouldn't be because of the netbook, Windows.

You can try this modification to allow higher resolutions:

  • Option window too big for the screen

    When I click main, then right on my images and go to interpret the options pop up and I want to get more options which is at the bottom. Unfortunately, the option windows passes in front of my screen (it snaps into place at the top of my screen) and I don't know how to resize and when I drag it up to get to the bottom, it will not pass in front of my screen so I can get the background options.

    Well, it is useful to meet the requirements of the system... There is a reason why the minimum resolution of 1280 x 900. Nothing you can do.

  • 5701na stream 7: too big for the screen Windows

    Hello

    I have a problem with the size of windows on my screen. Quite often and especially when I face problems of system such as updates, the windows are larger than the screen. There seems to be no option to resize manually or to tell them to fill the screen and just.

    This means that, for example, the OK button is the bottom of the screen, with no way to resize the window or scroll down (sometimes it is not broad enough on the bottom, but by hiding under the Dock down, so try to hit the OK start something else)

    I tried to work around using the keyboard equivalent (tabs etc.) but I often stuck into problems almost Terminal.

    All the ideas!

    Hey @JustinWorsley,

    Welcome to the forums of HP.

    I understand that you are having problems with sizes of application being too large in Windows 10 window.

    Your tablet screen resolution meets the minimum requirements for Windows 10. Make sure that the resolution is set to 1280 x 800. If it is not already in 1280 x 800, try changing that first and let me know if it helps. If this is the case, you may need to reinstall the drivers GPU.

    Thank you.

  • Window is too big for the screen, do not set by f11 or alt/space

    When enlarged, the view is too big to get the edges to move smaller. When I try to drag the top bar, it jumps to the small view rather than allowing me to reposition the window. The reduced view is only about 2 x 4 inches. Of course, I can make this larger point of view, but then I lose the choice of two sizes.

    There is no problem with changing the size of the fonts, etc, just the size of the main view. The problem is that in Firefox, not other programs.

    I tried the Firefox reset procedure, but that didn't help either.

    Oh, wait. You cannot resize a window enlarged, so that it runs from edge to edge without the sizing handles is normal Windows. You need only the above procedure, if the window is so large that it blocks the taskbar or the monitor runs away.

  • Reinstall Windows 7 Starter Acer Aspire One D257

    I have an Acer Aspire One D257. It has no built in DVD / Draw.  It came pre-installed with "windows 7 starter" I don't have a disc of recovery etc for this program. Last year I used widows any time upgrade to install "windows 7 Home premium upgrade," which has been installed via the internet by a Microsoft technician. Then I had the upgrade key sent to me by e-mail, what's left.  Later, I had problems with the computer and decided to windows 7 from re - stall. I visited the Microsoft site and downloaded the program on a USB Home premium windows 7 (32-bit).  I have this installed successfully in the D257 of Acer. But I was unable to activate with my key upgrade Windows 7 Home premium, for some reason any he does not accept it?  So now that I have a dilemma, I have a key that has cost about £76,00 for the upgrade that seems unnecessary.  Also, I am unable to revert to the original "windows 7 starter", as the system restore will allow me only to come back to a point in time that is after I installed windows 7 about 2 weeks ago. How can I fix this without having to buy another program again. P.S. I use an external DVD draw if I need. Can anyone help please.

    Original title: bobgoodman1706

    Hi thanks for the info. Unfortunately, the recovery was wiped out when I installed the new windows 7. However, I have now solved the problem by buying a new product key that has been a success so now have windows 7 home premium installed and fully active. Thanks to everyone who tried to help me.

  • Size of the file too big for the destination

    I made a video 9.50 GB as indicated by the display of 'properties' of Windows 7.  When I tried to download it to a flash drive 16 GB, and also a 128 GB flash drive, I got an error message that the file was too big for the destination.

    How can I solve this?

    If your flash drives have been formatted using FAT32, the maximum file size is 4 GB.  Format the disks using NTFS or exFAT.

  • My screen is too big for my screen and I can't fix it

    For some reason, my screen is now too big for my screen. I can see is over the top (File, edit, minimize, close) or down (the Start button, the clock) at the same time without having to move my mouse in these articles. But it's not fair when I use the internet. That's all the time. When I try to change the resolution, it doesn't change what I see on my screen and I do not see how much of it. Restart do no good either. I have an Eee PC Netbook, model 1005HA. It is brand new. Can anyone think what I can try? Thank you!

    In fact, I realized what it was. Apparently, my screen was changed into a different mode, to do this. How he got that way, I don't know, but it's fixed now. Thank you!

  • Windows 7 on Acer Aspire One D257 freezes constantly

    I recently bought an Acer Aspire One with Windows 7 Starter edition D257. It constantly freezes, random.

    Sometimes, after a minute after the start, sometimes up to 15 minutes later. I ran the program of recovery without success.

    Any ideas?

    Yo, I had the SAME PROBLEM, super frustrating. It was literally freezing every time you start in about one to five minutes >: () the solution I found, go to the Acer site and install the most recent driver chipset. Worked like a charm. Summer on the computer for 3 hours, no gel! :) - fingers crossed-

  • The image size is too big for TV

    I created a slide show on my PC with Windows Media Center and burned it to DVD.  When it is running in my DVD player connected to my 50 '' LCD TV, photo formats appear beyond the limits of the screen.  In particular, the photos that are vertical have one hand important summits and cut bottom.  How can I fix this?  Is there a setting in the slideshow that reduces the size of photo?

    Also, why is there not a selection for Windows Media Center in the "category".  If a selection is required, you should be able to make the right one!

    did you use the PAN and ZOOM setting?

    It's really the only control you have more images how to adapt to the screen. Windows Media Center has limited functions to make a basic slide show. Microsoft has stopped the development so there will be no changes or new features.

    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

    See you soon.
