started the office computer this morning and all the text and fonts are HUGE...cant figure out how to reduce them....it is not in Safe mode...have gone to the Control Panel>Display and messed around there and cant seem to change anything....running Windows XP...have restarted the computer a few times...that normally fixes any problem with the home desktop, but not at the office...thanks for any help

Did you try switching the screen resolution?
wouldnt let me do it, it was strange...went and did a system restore to 2 days ago and it has gone back to working properly, but if anyone does have the solution, would still like to know...in case it happens again...something happened from the time i closed the computer down yesterday and this morning...jsut wondering if it is going to do it again tomorrow :shrug:

put cursor on scroll bar and use your mouse wheel to reduce the size.

Had the oppsoite problem this morning. Fonts are very small though resolution seems a lot better, but got twice as much info on screen than before.
It seems there was an automatic Windows update installed last night. I can't seem to get my screen to look like it used to. Gonna go frikkin' blind at this rate. Have tried almost everytinhg and nothing works. Might have to uninstall updates.
