Hi, I'm writing this from my laptop, but am having problems with my pc? The desktop screen has somehow been altered, it's now much too big, and when I tried to zoom out using screen resolution, it now won't even work at all, it just says "input not support"! Can anyone help please? Many thanks!

    sounds like the Graphics Card has failed. depending on PC these are easy to replace
  • Is the mouse cursor massive too? If it is, it's likely an incorrect screen resolution. If not, you may have just turned magnification on.

    Sometimes certain screen resolutions aren't supported by your monitor- so you may have chosen an incompatible screen resolution for your monitor (hence 'Mode not supported' message).

    If you post up the make and model of the monitor, someone should be able to advise you of the optimum screen resolution.
