Computer crashed and would only boot in Safe Mode.Changed the display settings to 800 by 600 pixels, High Color (16 Bit). Computer seems to run fine, but the display font is a bit small and smaller than the original size. How do I change to default display or bigger font size? I tried 720 X 480 - distorted, 640 400 - too big.

You may need to re-install some system drivers.

Start with the motherboard / chipset drivers.
Then, install the video card driver.
Then, verify in display settings / advanced / monitor, that Windows has identified your monitor properly.
(For some monitors, you need the mfg driver)

You should now have all display mades available again.

Hi,

In 800x600 or above you have preference to use small fonts or bigger fonts. Try to change it to bigger fonts by entering display control panel -> setting -> advance -> general tab -> font size -> large font.
