My computer is screwed up. Yesterday, all of a sudden, it just made a Blip all by itself ( Like when you refresh a page...) and now my screen and pictures are all stretched out and distorted! For no reason! What do I do to make this computer go back to the way it was?
I cannot do system restore because I don't know where the Instruction Manual for Computer Help is located....years ago I had a computer that had that stuff on my toolbar....but, I have no idea where all that stuff is on this computer. |

Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

Sounds like a resolution issue. What operating system are you using?

So on win 8, right click somewhere on desktop. Should bring up a menu. One of the options is screen resolution. Click on that. Then see what your resolution says it is set at. Not sure what monitor you have so I am not sure what setting it should be on, but you can change it around a bit and see if you can find one that works.
