Adjust My Computer's Screen Size |
|
|
I recently bought a 17 inch Toshiba satellite laptop and I was hoping websites would appear bigger. BUT THEY DON'T! They are the same size as my 15 inch computer, it has two white BLANK columns on either side of the website so that it is the same size as my other computer! Why buy a 17 inch if it is only going to be bigger for movies that you watch? Am I doing something wrong? Is there something I can adjust? I really don't want to call customer service because it will be someone who can't speak English.

How do you adjust the screen size? My sister made it bigger and now I can fix it.

To Paula... Remember your parents or grandparents came here and couldn't speak English too....

Glad I was able to help you out Shirley .. :-) I sometimes want the bigger resolution to see what web pages will look like in a bigger resolution. Some framed sites tend to look funny if you don't allow for the bigger resolution.

I lowered it from the preset of 1440 x 900 down to 1024 x 764but the picture is blurry. It is a nice size but too blurry. Anyway to make it clearer or sharper?
Any lower and it is way to big.
Why would anyone want 17 inch laptop if the web pages are going to load smaller than a 15 inch?

Hi Paula,
What resolution are you running? If you are running windows as your operating system....You can find this information under your control panel, display, settings. It will have a bar that can be moved to display your screen at 1024 by 768 (which is smaller) or if you move the bar to the left 800 by 600 (which makes the screen have a larger resolution. ) I say move to the left because it sounds like you are running 1024 by 768 resolution. Let me know how it works or if you have any questions.
