How do I make my computer go back to a normal font?

Question

Something weird happened to my laptop so I shut it down. When I turned i back on the font for everything was huge. I checked in settings and advanced settings and both say its normal.

Is their any other way to make the font size go back to normal?

Answer 1

For something like this, you really should give more information about what operating system you are using. Chances are you're using Windows XP so I'll have to give those directions.

- Right-click the desktop

- Click 'Properties...'

- Under the 'Appearance' tab make sure the font size is normal.

If that doesn't work:

- Right-click the desktop

- Click 'Properties...'

- Click on the 'Settings' tab (upper right)

- Click on the 'Advanced' button (towards the bottom right)

- Make sure that the DPI settings are normal. If it already says that it's normal, you could use a custom DPI to compensate.

If for some reason that's not the problem, just double-check that you are using the highest screen resolution.

Finally, if nothing works, do a System Restore to before you first noticed the problem. (From memory: Start menu, All Programs, Accessories, System tools, System Restore)
