The first thing that I would do is re-install the video card drivers. \n\n(I would not rely on Windows to be correct, since you can't make changes, so if necessary, I wold open the Pc and determine the exact make and model of the video card.  If you have an onboard video adapater, then I would go to the manufactors web site to identify) \n\nOnce I installed new video drivers, I would check to make sure that the video card has the ability to change and display different video modes. (640X480, etc.) You can change that via the Adapters settings in the Display window. \n\nProperties: To access the hardware properties for your video card or on-board video hardware, click the Properties button. This is the same properties window that can be accessed through Device Manager. \nList all Modes: This useful feature lists all the supported graphic resolutions and refresh rates that can be sent to the monitor by the video card or on-board video hardware. You can use the list of valid modes to find a mode that is compatible with the monitor you are using. Once a compatible mode is found, you can change the refresh rate from the monitor tab, and the display resolution from the settings tab of the basic display properties window.

try clicking on the maximize button on the upper right part of the frame. if that doesn't work, check your resolution by right-clicking anywhere on your desktop wallpaper and select "properties". go to "settings" and check what your screen size is.\n\nif all else fails, perhaps it's your monitor that needs adjusting.

Your monitor doesn't support a higher resolution than that. You need to get a monitor that supports the resolution you want. Windows will lock out modes that your monitor can't display even if your video card is capable.

Once you install Windows XP Service Pack 2 the windows boot/load screen changes, don't worry about it, its only giving you something to look at while windows loads.

I can't remember seeing a setting in PM 7 to resize toolbars and am not at a computer right now that has it installed but I doubt there is one.\nMost likely changing the screen size in Display Properties would be the answer (if on a pc that is) but be careful of not going to large or you might not be able to see the OK and Cancel buttons at the bottom of dialog boxes.

Did you accidently change the settings of your desktop appearance? Right Click on your desktop and click Properties. Click on the Settings Tab on top. Now below you will see the Display type and then Screen Resolution. Trying making that a little bigger by moving the little bar to the right. See if that fixes your problem.

Set a virtual desktop and change the resolution to one of them. Microsoft has a fairly nice and free utility to do this called Virtual Desktop Manager.

If working in Internet Explorer, go to View, Text Size, Largest.\n\nYou can also change your desktop appearance for all programs.  On your desktop screen, right click, the go to properties, settings, change screen resolution to the least amount (far left)

Try resizing the window by dragging the borders (not using the maximize button) and closing them right away.  You'll have to do this for each of the different types of windows once (explorer, file manager, application window).  Now each time you open a window of that type it should open to the size that you resized it to.

As far as I'm aware they'res not. There are generally settings on the actual monitor for stuff like that. Those settings are independent of the computer or the video card

It actually sounds like you've exited uncleanly, and it has kept the game resolution.\n\nWhat you need to do is right click the desktop, select properties, and then click the Settings tab. You will find a slider there titled "Screen Resolution" slide that baby updwards. (A bigger resolution means more pixels, smaller icons). \n\nMost people these days are using either the 1280x1024 setting or 1024x768. Have a go and see what you prefer.

That didn't work, try this...\n\nIn Windows Explorer, open up the Tools Menu, Folder Options, Hit the View Tab.  In the "Advanced Settings" box, scroll down until you see "Remember each folder's view settings" and make sure its checked. Hit Apply at the bottom, then "Apply to all folders" button at the top.\n\nBrowse to your folder and change it to how you like, then close explorer and run it again and see if it kept it this time.\n\nIf it did, make sure you reboot the PC so Windows will keep those settings.
