Hi D R Jenkins
You might try booting into Safe Mode and change the display setting
back there. This way you will be able to have everything onscreen to se
what you are doing. This tutorial will show you how to boot into Saf
Mode if needed
SAFE MODE

SCREEN RESOLUTION

You might also check to make sure that you DPI settings are not abov
the default 96 DPI. This can cause everything to appear large an
offscreen as well. Here's a tutorial on it to

Hope this helps you
