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 website of the manufacturer of your computer/laptop > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

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.

  • I can't go in the settings of fonts. How to change the font size?

    I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and I finished it sync for my Android phone. I went into a kind of dialog box settings and accidentally changed my fonts and text settings and now I can't read any of my Gmail which is in my account on my desktop - it's too small. I'm trying to figure out how I can enter in the content settings (I feel that I do once I have enter the menu 'options' on the content settings page, but I don't know how to bring up the menu of the content/page settings). I use my desktop PC for work and I can't use it with the font settings and how they are now. I also read where the issues are taken, but no one knows how to find the answers to the questions people are asking. How do we get the answers that people give us on the issue, we asked?

    I hope you can help me as soon as POSSIBLE, I can change what I as soon as POSSIBLE. I'm working on my pc 24/7 for the work and is not helping me when I can't read the emails and I can't solve the problem.

    Thank you!

    Hi Upset2,

    Sorry to hear that you are having problems with font sizes in Firefox on your desktop.

    Text sizes really small for each Web site you visit, or is it just your emails?
    Text sizes are really small on your desktop and Android or only one?

    There are several things that could cause your text sizes to seem strange, so I'll take you by a couple.

    First of all, your email page could have a zoom. On your PC, could you please try open Gmail and then by clicking on the icon at the top right of your screen that looks like three lines?

    This will bring up a new menu and near the top of the menu are three buttons: a minus (-), a percentage (that is to say, he could say 70%) and a plus (+). Please click button percentage - this should Gmail zoom to 100%.

    If that doesn't fix it, let's try using the method on your printout. To access the content settings screen, click the button in the top right that looks like three lines. Click on Preferences. A new window will open. Click on the 'Content' button and follow the instructions that you change the font size.

    There is another version of the instructions I just gave you, with screenshots, here: font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages

    Mozilla Support issues are all handled by volunteers, and at peak hours, there may be a delay. Thanks for your patience!

    I hope this helps.

  • A way to change the font, size and "BOLD" to each page?

    Due to problems described here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1012057?esab=a & s = & r = 0 & as = s I erase that I need something (an extension, perhaps) I want to recognize and change the font size and "BOLD" fonts in each page.
    Is there something like this?
    Maybe also for the bookmarks bar...

    You can use the NoSquint extension to define the size of the font (zoom text/page) and the color of the text on web pages.

  • 'Options' are not listed under 'Tools' in the Manger of the activity to change the font size of the incoming messages. Where is he?

    I'm changing the the font size for incoming messages. Thunderbird "helps," says click on Tools/Options/display/setting in the advanced form. When I click on 'Tools' or use "Alt + T", 'Options' are not listed. Where can I go to get the "options"? I am running Windows 8.1 if it makes a difference.

    ALT + T you should get there. Options is under Tools on the menu bar. Pressing alt makes the menu bar appear if not already displayed.

    If you use the AppMenu (square with 3 lines) button click the AppMenu, hover over the Options, and then select Options.

    What problems are you having with the arrow? You go to Tools-> annotate-> arrow and an arrow appears. Then you can drag around the head and tail to make it to the desired location.

  • Why is the font size changed

    After the upgrade to 22.0 has changed the font size of all my windows.

    The extension of theme and the police is much easier to use than to change the PixelsPerPx. I tried and it decreased the size of my toolbar and menu bar. But I saved the website just in case.

  • possible to change the font size of the bookmark toolsbar?

    possible to change the font size of the bookmark toolsbar?
    upgrade to firefox v22 and notice this bookmark toolsbar got bigger, some bookmark font cannot be displayed, it is normal? possible to change?

    Hello

    Firefox on Windows is now after display, scaling options that can make the biggest text on screens at high resolution.
    You can adjust the resolution of your screen.
    To change it follow these steps:

    • Type of topic: config in the Firefox address bar and hit the Enter key.
    • If the warning that this might void your warranty , click I'll be careful, I promised.
    • Search for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

    • Double-click layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to edit its value. The default value is - 1.0 in Firefox 22 and above. Change it to 1.0 to run as in previous versions of Firefox.

    If necessary, further adjust the value of 0.1 or 0.05. Values between 1.0 and around 0.5 to reduce the size of the elements. Use a value greater than 1.0 to increase the size. For example, a value of 1.25 will increase the font size of the 125% to account for the default DPI setting in Windows 8. Check the value that you enter. Definition of a value that is too small will take everything away and too high will explode things.

    If the web pages should always be adjusted so you can watch the extension Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint .

    To adjust the font size for the user interface, you can use the extension of theme font & size changer .

    This solve your problems? Please report to us!

    Thank you.

  • How to change the font size and color in the toolbar Firefox 10?

    I was switched to Mozilla Firefox 10.0 by a representative of Dell. I had been using IE8. I have the Windows 7-64 bit operating system. I can't read my toolbar on Mozilla it is so small and the police is black with gray background! Is this not a great combination. Is anyway to change the font size of toolbar and from the colour? I downloaded the module Amazon on WOW! It's clear as a Bell, but Mozilla is absolutely horrible. If I can't get the editing toolbar I need to know another browser to use cause after only 5 hours trying to customize and use Firefox 10.0 I'm all done. I can't get any telephone communication or chatline support. I was in the knowledge base up until I can recite! And Kaspersky is not compatible. More of a nightmare what I need.
