My laptop came in over the weekend. I'm just now getting into it. I've always used a desktop, so I'm trying to get used to the keypad instead of an external mouse. I think I'm gonna go to Best Buy (or some tech-type similar store) and buy an external wireless mouse.
I have a question: Everything on the screen is really small. Could be b/c I'm used to looking 21+in monitors, but isn't there a way I can make things look larger on my laptop monitor? Advice is appreciated.
Hi,
You can try three things:
1. Go to Start, Control Panels, Display, Appearance tab - you can change just the font size here; NO reboot req'd
2. Go to Start, Control Panels, Display, Settings tab, Advanced button, General tab, change DPI settings; you WILL have to reboot if you do this
3. On whatever screen you're on, click anywhere on the screen, hold down your keyboard CTRL key, and then use your mouse wheel to either incr or decr; this is, obviously, just a temporary 'quick fix'
On a totally unrelated topic, I'm sorry I missed the BBQ. I wuz out of town and didn't even think to check my LSD email. Oh well. There's always .50c chicken legs at Buffalo Wild Wings if anyone is ever interested
