Page Size Trouble?/ Monitor Sugesstions

[McGregor]

I finally got my computer back up and running. Everything was wiped and I'm in the process of getting all my programs put back on it.

I've came on IE and visited the forum. Problem is everything seems so huge.

I don't know if my eyes are just playing tricks (I do wear specs :laugh: ) or if there is a monitor problem.

Is there anyway to see much more of the homepage? I'm only seeing half of the post, I now need to scroll across.

Going from the laptop screen back to the comp monitor may take a while getting used to but it is only a 15'' screen hence i'm figuring it hard to work out whats what.

Whilst on the subject can anyone recommend a good slick monitor approximately 19'' or so with good sound quality. No dearer than #150

Edit - Strange thay when i press shift 3 this appears instead of a pound sign

Click page top right ( that icon with the pencil and paper)> zoom> 100%

Should fix it, maybe.

IE7: Page -> Zoom

I assume you're using a fairly high resolution (Right-click on the desktop -> Personalize (Vista)/Properties (XP) -> Display Settings)

Thanks Sweey, I followed the latter instructions.

Whenever there is a computer fault you are the man to fix it.
