Not sure where this should be posted or under what topic - I use Vista Home
Premium - the other night I turned off my monitor for the evening. The next
morning when I turned it on everything, all words, screens even my bootup
screen was miniaturized. There was a border around my bootup picture and the
icons were small also. I had no idea what had happened - Any idea what
caused this? I used system restore and everything returned to normal size,
however, what happened?? Thanks - Later, JPC

Hi,

Something caused the resolution size to change. Possibly the video driver
had trouble reinitializing. Either that or there was a problem reloading the
monitor.inf file after a sleep mode session. Tough to tell why it happened.
