    Hello i just recevied my HDX16 and was wondering how can i fix the text size and the way websites are viewed so they cover the entire screen.

    My text is already at its largest but everything is really small.Also most pages are centered in the middle of the moniter how can i adjust it so it covers the entire screen.I also noticed on google.com the letters were bigger then other websites.Again i have it set to the largest.Its so small its bothering my eyes.

    Any help with this matter would mean alot. Adrian

    Some images on my other moniter cover the entire screen but on the HDX16 they look shrunk. .Is there a way to adjust the images so they can cover the entire screen.Also my text is very tiny which iam not likeing at all.

    Some images are not aligned properly.

    That's because you ordered the laptop with a very high resolution (1080p). You can adjust font size as well as your desktop wallpaper in the control panel (Appearance and Personalization - Personalization).

    Right click on your desktop, left click on personalize, and then left click in the left window pain on "Adjust Font DPI". Set to 120 DPI.
