Internet Options window too large for screen - Acer Aspire One Netbook 8.9" Notebook

If you are playing pogo games ?

Pogo.com is an online gaming website where you can play well-known games such as Monopoly, Battleship and Scrabble -- along with scores of other board, word, puzzle and arcade games -- in a Web browser window. The games on Pogo are programmed using Adobe Flash, and are viewed in a small box inside the browser. If your computer has a large display, you may find the games difficult to see because of the of the game box. Although you cannot independently adjust the of the Pogo game box, there are several tricks that you can use to make games appear larger on your screen. Magnify the browser window. In Internet Explorer 9, click the gear-shaped button in the upper-right corner of the screen, and click "Zoom" and "Zoom In." Browse in full screen mode. In Internet Explorer 9, press the "F11" key to enter this mode, and press "F11" again to leave it. Lower the screen resolution. In Windows 7, minimize the browser, right-click the desktop and select "Screen Resolution." Click the drop-down menu next to "Resolution," and select a lower resolution than the one currently displayed. Because a lower resolution uses less pixels to display the information on the screen, this has the effect of making the Pogo game box larger. Remember to change the resolution back when you are done playing. Disable the address and status bars in Internet Explorer 9 if a portion of the game window is cut off. Click the gear-shaped button, and then click "Internet Options." Click the "Security" tab, then click the "Custom Level" button. Click the "Enable" radio button next to "Allow websites to open windows without address or status bars," then click "OK" twice. Close and re-open your Pogo game window. Press the "F4" key. Some Pogo games enter full-screen mode when this key is pressed, but many do not. Hope this helps.

Try the following:

For Windows XP

2. A Display Properties window will open, click on the Appearance tab and on the Font size drop-down, choose Large Fonts or Extra Large and click Apply.



For Windows Vista.

For Windows 7

Windows XP: Start/Control Panel/Switch to Classic View/Internet Options/Address bar/Change web address www.google.com.
Windows Vista/7 Start/Control Panel/Vista=Switch to classic view or Win7=View by Large Icons/Internet Options/Address Bar Highlighted/Change Web address.

Enter on a page that has text. Then from the top-right menu, click on Page menu and watch down to the Text Size. You have some options like Smallest, smaller, medium, large, very large. Choose the desired.

You have two options. You can either change the screen resolution or you can change the size of the text on the website.

To change your screen resolution (assuming Windows 7, other Operating Systems are similar, I can help with another if you let me know which):

- Right click the desktop
- Click Screen resolution
- Select from the dropdown a resolution that looks good (monitors and laptops only let you select a limited number of resolutions, based on what they are capable of displaying)

To change the text size and zoom on a website (assuming Internet Explorer), click the page dropdown, and select various options under Text Size and Zoom until the look and feel is comfortable to your liking.

Thanks, and let me know if I can help with anything else :)

Either change your Desktop resolution...
OR
In Internet explorer, click on view/zoom and change the settings, you can also adjust the text size there

The first thing to do when Internet Explorer is misbehaving is empty your Internet Explorer cache. Often the cache is not corrupt or damaged – it is simply too large.
1.
Click Tools, then Internet Options, and then click the Delete Files button.
2.
A Delete Files window will appear. Select the option to Delete all offline content, and then click OK.
3.
Click Settings and reduce the size of your cache to, say, 50 to 100 MB (more if you routinely download very large files).


What windows operating system are you using? The best way to defrag a hard drive is to turn off your screensaver, if you have one set to run, then reboot your computer in safe mode, by continuously tapping the F8 key at the bootup screen, and then selecting safe mode (#3) on the menu. Then go to Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools/Disk Defragmentor. Be sure you have the settings to correct any problems that it may find. If you have to scan your hard drive for problems, then open My Computer/right-click the C: drive/select properties/click the tools tab/and under error checking, click the 'check now' button. Checking your hard drive for errors will take awhile to accomplish, so just let it run.

Just click the button PAGE, Click TEXT SIZE and select MEDIUM.

Or, just press CONTROL and + to increase size, CONTROL and - to decrease size.

Clear your internet cache in Internet Explorer:
