Computer text size problem. (1 Viewer)

[Teasy2007]

Hi, could anyone please help?

The text on our screen (HP Pavilion g6) has suddenly reduced itself to miniscule, and I mean tiny.

I have been into control panel and altered the text sizes, but it has only made the surrounding text and images eg everything at the top and sides but the actual text is still too small to read! I had this problem before but it seemed to put itself right.

It is something simple, a combination of keys I have caught or can anyone suggest a solution.

I know we are getting on but this is really too small to read.

Try ctrl and + to make bigger ctrl and - to make smaller :thumb:

Try holding the control key, then press the + key.

edit: Beat me to it.

There's a + and - button on the left hand edge of this keyboard which I sometimes inadvertently catch which does the same job as 'Control +/-' - has caught me out on numerous accasions.

Just above my task bar on the bottom right hand side of the screen ..just above my date and time....I have a small "change zoom level" which goes from 100% to 150%...........makes everything bigger....I usually have mine on 125%

Weird but on my recent posts on the forum I have also experienced a much smaller font... have tried to adjust the font but with out success.... it is a case of squinting or magnifying glass to read what I had written ... wahayyyy ...

But Kath what you didn't say is that you'd just downed a bottle of champers!!

LOL - my screen res is set to 150% permanently now. Was 125% but had to increase it a while ago!

Ahh if only
Did mean to say it is only when I am replying to a post that the font is very small
