Thanks for the info. I'm not sure what happened. I wanted to change my
screen resolution from 800 x 600 to 1024 x 768 so that my games and video
would look better, but when I did , the material on my desktop was to small.
I was trying to find a desktop setting at 1024 x 768 that made my desktop
appear the way it did at 800 x 600.
