I have been offline for over a week as my computer had to be 'scrubbed' as it got a nasty bug in it.How do I increase the size of the font on the site so I can read it a bit better All the posts seem to be a lot smaller now than they were before Is it something thats just happened whilst I was off line or is it something I can correct myself .Bear with me as I am not in the least techy minded at all

scrubbed as in wiped, if so, did they install the correct drivers - look in device manager

click the zoom button, in IE, bottom right, or alt, view text size.

a disk image backup avoids such problems http://www.macrium.com/reflectfree.aspx

Control and + buttons will increase your text size.

Try holding down the ctrl key while you turn the wheel on the mouse.

The above will increase the font size in internet explorer.

If the machine has been reinstalled I would look at the Graphics Proerties (usually right click on the desktop) and set to a lower resolution.

This will increase the size of all text on the machine.

I have a problem today with my new mobile. Everything is zoomed and I am unable to read it as I can only see a little bit. When I want to increase the writing on my lap top I just pull the area next to the right and left click button I have tried to do this on the phone but no joy. It is probably very simply I tried going into settings but I cant really see the writing there as I can only see one word or a few letters of a word.
Would appreciate advice on this

Thanks Sue
