After logging on this morning, everything on my screen is in very small print. How to make everything bigger.
This includes the userpage, the bureau and all programs and documents.
Restore point:
http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/
Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.
Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.
Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If the above does not fix it:
Go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your laptop computer-graphics/computer card > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.
Then:

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.

Word is no longer in my programs after several reboot this morning
original title: Word is no longer listed in my programs after several reboot this morning - SEE Add ' l COMMENT ADDED at the END of
I typed in the search box and the open program winword, but now how do I add it to my startup (and to see it reported once more as an active program)?
My PC is Windows XP - I think that it's the home edition. Word 2003. I started my computer this morning after having been turned off during the weekend and it was very slow. Safely, I rebooted twice but no difference - then did two tough stops. Norton 360 (no problem popped up) and restarted the computer. Everything worked fine until I went to start a new Word document.
I tried to do a system restore but it says that no changes have been made to my computer. But I know that's not true!
Help!
MORE: I have now called Microsoft Word Viewer, I've never seen before. Thanks again.
Word Viewer is (probably) the application from Microsoft which allows you to view documents created with newer versions of Word (Word 2007 and Word 2010). In general, they are saved as files instead of.doc, *.docx files.
You can create a shortcut on the desktop to the Word as follows:
- Right click on a box empty the desktop and select new > shortcut
- Click the Browse button and locate winword.exe, which for Word 2003, should be in
- C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11
- Click next
- In the 'Name' box, replace Winword.exe with Word (or whatever you like)
- Click on finish
If you also want an entry in the start menu > all programs list.
- Click the Start button, and then select open all users
- Double-click the "Programs" folder
- Right-click and drag the shortcut on the desktop that you created in the folder open ' programs' and select 'Copy here' in the context menu

This morning Thunderbird updated itself and a window pops up saying shortcut to thunderbird does not exist. After that I can't find where it is so that I can run.
Thank you very much. Yes, the problem was exactly the same. Thunderbird executable disappeared after an update. I reinstalled it simply by downloading the configuration file. All my configurations and emails and folders, etc were in place. A great feeling to not lose everything. Again, thank you for your kind reply.

After logging on my Satellite Pro only black screen and the cursor are visible
I have a windows vista pro (PSAASE-00G004GR) satellite after turn on and typing the password for windows vista, the screen goes black but I see that the cursor moves & because it seems that the hard drive also works in th background, but I can't see anything except the mouse cursor , I tried to boor with other options (LAST WORK safe MODE KNOWN FEATURES... etc) but it's still the same only black screen and the cursor...
I do not prefer the product cause of my data recovery on this subject, any ideas?
thnxHello
You have the Satellite Pro A100 PSAAS hmm if you want to save your personal data, I recommend to remove the portable computer HARD drive and try connecting it to another computer via an external USB HDD controller. These cases of 2.5 HARD disk are not expensive and you can buy it in every store of the computer.
Then you could try to recover the laptop delivered together with the Toshiba Recovery CD.
But wait; have you tried to connect the laptop to the external display?
Check it!
Maybe you could see something on the second screen.I think that this procedure could be useful to clarify what s wrong.
To me this question looks like a small little dysfunction of the FL inverter.
In this case the installation of the new operating system will help you not to solve this problem.But who knows the verification is necessary to find what could be wrong.
Good luck and bye ;)

I have no Favorites or history system when I logged in this morning. I rebooted and tried the suggestion on the support page, nothing. There is a cap of banner stating "the bookmarks and history system won't be functional because one of the files of Firefox is used by another application. Some security software can cause this problem. » ... What should I do?
FIREFOX SHOULD HAVE PERFECTED 3.6.3 BEFORE RELEASING.

I reloaded Firefox this morning and now the HOTMAIL site doesn't load.
After "reloading" Firefox this morning when I try to access my Hotmail account, I just get a blank screen instead of the normal Hotmail Log In screen.
Hi, please follow the instructions under the heading "clear history for this site" of Web sites say cookies are blocked - pledge, making sure that you remove all references to Hotmail.
If this does not work, try Mode without failure of Firefox to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:
- Click the menu button
click Help
then select restart with disabled modules.
If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:
- On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
- On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
(you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."
If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

PC IS A COMPAQ PRESARIO V6000 RUNNING WINDOWS XP
PC DOES NOT RESTART AFTER THE LAST FIREFOX DOWNLOAD THIS MORNING
The PC screen does not light and I think he's dead. It can be quite fortuitous, and there may be a hardware failure that he would have stopped working even without the download of firefox. I'll have to consider Repair shop and see if anything can be saved on the hard disk.
Thanks anyway

Right-click on the desktop and select Properties, then click the settings tab. I don't know the size and the type of monitor you have and which resolutions it supports but try a lower resolution like 1024 × 768 or 800 x 600, to see which of the available resolution works best for your screen.
You can change the font size by clicking the appearance tab on the display properties screen and selecting a different value as Large or Extra Large in the drop-down list below the font size. You can also set your own preferred font size by clicking Advanced on the settings tab, and then change the DPI setting on the general tab.

All got smaller during the night. When I open Thunderbird this morning, everything was in very small print. How can I make all adults?
Tip: install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/theme-font-size-changer/
A little less than simple, but not dependent on an add-on: Add the following text to chrome/userChrome.css in your Thunderbird profile.
/* * Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning */ @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */ /* * Make all the default font sizes 10 pt: */ * { font-size: 10pt !important; }
Everything you need to replace 10pt .

Time Capsule A1355 no light, no sound? worked this morning now after connecting it, first green light solid, quickly followed by amber is more solid, which turns off and then nothing? I'm not in the airport or if directly connected to the Macbook air utility. It is running the latest firmware, updated 7 days ago and everything was fine until now. Tried both a soft and a hard reset factory but still nothing, but the same brief glow only after restarting each time before going dark again? Any ideas if it can be fixed or if it's as I read elsewhere dead now?
Thank you
Any ideas if it can be fixed or if it's as I read elsewhere dead now?
He died... the fact that the main witness turns off is unusual in this model.
It is common to the next... A1409 (gen4)
What happens in the Gen3 is normally a few deaths on the Board... or a bunch of capacitors is low...
If yours is a very fine introduces Gen3 just before Gen 4, it is possible that the same fix on the Gen 4 could work.
I found early Gen4 may fail as Gen3 but must admit that I am yet to see the Gen3 with welding problems.
I doubt repair is worth it. The Gen3 is now about 6 years... give or take... This is way beyond the standard lifetime of a TC.
If you want to play, I'm happy to help you... but I would not spend money on it.
