You could change the screen resolution to lower numbers and it'll make the stuff on screen bigger

would that be under settings or something, maybe tools? Also, I have an idea on how my other laptop may have have died...
When I came home on Friday, I went to turn it on and I got shocked, that may have had an effect on it? Also, I have one of those cooling things under it and sometimes it makes like a vibrating noise and I just tap (kinda Hit it) on the keyboard area, that may have had some affect on it after doing that for a few months.....
Who knows, but it doesn't even go to the logon screen anymore, I think I f'd it up? I have a Dell 1525 laptop that is kinda old, I'm wondering is ther anything on my Dell studio laptop that could be salvageable to use on the 1525 (memory) or anything like that? Let me know what you think, thanks Keane.....
Lemme pause top gear so i can think
Assuming your new desktop uses Windows 7, right click on the desktop background, in the menu that pops up one of the options should be Screen Resolution. Click that one, then adjust the resolution so its lower, souldn't have to go too far for it to be ok. You might have to fiddle with it a bit so it doesn't look squashed or anything.
The shocking thing might have had something to do with it. Computer parts are very sensitive to electrical charge, even ones you cant feel. Anytime i work on a computer i use an antistatic wrist strap to help prevent any inadvertant damage.
My laptop has a fan issue on ocasion as well. Few well placed smacks on the underside shuts it up. As long as you werent beating the crap out of it i doubt that hitting/tapping should have had a huge affect. As far as usable parts, maybe there might be something useful. Depends if they had the same type of memory or not
