Follow the steps
below to set your screens settings
As you travel through the web you may
find that some sites look better than others, indeed it may be
impossible for you to even read some, the explanation and cure for this
common problem is easy.
You may have a great computer with
wonderful graphics and fast processor etc. but the chances are when it
was shipped the display settings were left at 640 x 480 pixels and very
probably only 256 colors.
To change these settings in Windows 95
please follow these simple steps and get a better experience (you may
also find headaches become less frequent!)
 |
Step 1:
Click the Start Button. Go to "Settings" on the
pop-up menu. Click on "Control Panel". |
 |
|
 |
Step 2:
When the Control Panel window opens, double click on the "Display" icon. |
|
Step 3:
You will now be presented with the "Display Properties" window. Click on
the "Settings" Tab (on the right). |
 |
|
Step 4:
Below and left of the image of the monitor, you will
see the Color palette (you should change this to High Color by selecting it from the drop down menu). You will need
to restart your computer if you change the color settings. On the right is the Desktop
area. Left click and hold the mouse button down. Move your mouse in the
direction you want the slider to be moved. Move your slide either up or
down. We recommend you use at least a setting of 800 by 600 pixels. Now click OK.
Windows will ask you to confirm the
change (or it may ask you to restart your computer), click ok. If you
did not restart your computer, the screen will resize and windows will again ask you if you want to
keep these new settings- click "Yes". If your new settings are
not correct, then Windows will resize your screen back to the original
settings.
If your computer asks you to shut
down, follow the instructions and shut your machine down.
