Hi, i had changed my XP display to 200 DPI to play a game on my TV,but
after
the game i did not set display back to 96 DPI form the TV screen but
went to my little LCD to find out everything so huge and i was
expecting it, but what i didn't expect is that winXP HE won't adapt its
main control windows commands so i can use them properly.

Now all the basic contols in the lower windows are literally
inaccessible as i can't drag any window up enough to click on Apply,OK
or Cancel buttons.

There must be a way to move windows more up or diagonaly or does it
mean XP became useless because of that?!

Any help would be very,very much appreciated.
thanx

Hi,

alt+space+m

Then use the arrow keys to move the window around.

Restart your computer in safe mode.. press F8 just after the initialisation
screen disappears.. repeated stabs is a good way to ensure that you get to
the safe mode boot menu.. when in safe mode, you can reset your display
adapter back to 96dpi..

Thanx for help Rick and Mike...
in Debugging Mode it seemed to have forced reduced display but it still
wasn't enough, while alt+space+m couldn't move it above.
Since OK=Enter...damn!!
