Ive just bought a easynote TE Packard Bell, the cat stood on the keyboard and the text and screen is massive, anyone know how I get it back to normal. My last computer had something on the bottom right to reduce it but this one hasn't. It's giving me a headache to be honest.
make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.

    (must've been looking for a mouse;))

    try the FUNCTION keys - the ones with F on..

    On mine it's in tools under zoom top right looks like cog wheel.
  • Hi,

    or try Ctrl and minus key, can also hold Ctrl and use scroll wheel on mouse.

    CTRL+0 will reset zoom to normal (100%)
    How do I add a signature?

    On the toolbar,

    View>Zoom>Reset (for firefox)
    View>Zoom>100% (for Internet Explorer)

    think Im going to have to take itback though, my pointer keeps freezing, took it back today and it seemed okay, now its started again. I set it to max sensitivity but doesnt make any difference. Shame though, its a great little machine

    Sorry A; couldn't resist.

    And you've gone up in my estimation, being a cat lover. I have two. One of them likes Poppadoms - I ask you! I was holding one last night and she just got stuck in!
