all you comp guys, i just completly reformated my computer, reinstalled the operating system, and swiped everything clean. after reinstalling everthing there is just one little thing that is bothering me alittle. the size of the screen seemed to stretch out alittle making the pages on the internet wider and kind of annoying to view. i went to properties and it is set as the smallest screen resolution and the font for windows is set at the right size. anyone know what else i can do? an example is i had a pic of me riding as my desktop backround. the pic was perfect no blur. after reformat i tryed it and its alittle stretched out and blurry. thanks a ton

on the monitor somewhere there should be a set of buttons....depends what kind of monitor you have but try them all and one should come up and youll see a thingwith a square and an arrow inside, go to that and then make it less, do the same with the other one just like it....hard to explain but hope it helps
