I recently had to reinstall windows again to my laptop ,it completely wiped the old version off,anyway i did manage to get everything up and running again,i even managed to find some of my old files,
so thats the hard bit over with,
anyway i feel stupid for asking ,but when i try and view a webpage like mjjcommunity,i can,t see the full page.i have to move the bar along at the bottom,
how can i get it to fit to screen?
I have clicked on tools and page settings.and clicked on where it says text size.it does alter the size of the text but not the page,
sorry if i am confusing you.
My head is about to explode,
it,s probably something really simple ,
any advice would be appreciated.
THANKS IN ADVANCE

lots of love
sarah

It sounds like a resolution problem. All you need to do is...

For Windows XP:
- Right click the desktop and then click 'Properties'
- Click the 'Settings' tab
- Drag the Screen Resolution tab across to the right
- Click apply
- The resolution will then change and if everything appears back to normal click 'Yes' in the small pop-up windows
- Click OK

For Windows Vista or 7:
- Right click the desktop and click 'Screen Resolution'
- In the drop down box called 'Resolution', drag that tab right up to the top
- The resolution will then change and if it's how you want it then click 'Keep Changes'
- Click OK
- Done

You can mess around with the sizes a little to suit your needs though.

yes it's a resolution problem, and don't forget to install the display driver and all the other drivers

thankyou guys for your replys,
but i am using windows vista.
so i went to the control panel clicked on personalization and then
display settings .this is what it says on display settings.

adjust your monitor resolution.which changes the view so more or fewer items fit on the screen,you can also control monitor flicker.

i did try this one yesterday but it only makes the text smaller and not the page.
