    I changed the dpi of my notebook to be able to see the whole window. I made it way, way too small and cannot read anything even with a magnifying glass. Trying to change it to bigger again is like trying to click on the right 'spot' with closed eyes......any help/advise will be appreciated

    :eek:

    "You should be able to boot into Safe Mode to change the DPI back to 96 dpi, then restart the computer as normal."

    Googling doesn't hurt :)

    Googling doesn't hurt, but, also the point of this forum is to help people, and, for google to be able to be littered with topics that people can find, the topics also need to be created in the first place, like this one :)
