Here's a question for you ARFCOM computer geeks. When I log on to this website and read some of the threads I have to use the bottom scroll bar and move it to the right because the computer won't display the whole screen. Is there any way of fixing that?

Depending on your OS.  Right click on your desktop and choose Properties.  Then click Settings.  Then adjust the slider by Screen Resolution to the right.  I run mine at 1280 x 1024 for example.  Then set the color quality to 32 bit.  Click ok.

ETA:  If your monitor is small ie 15 or 17 inch.  I suggest getting a larger one.  At least 19 inch.  Also if your screen settings will not go to 1280 x 1024 or higher it's time for a different video card.

You might try changing the text size in the services section. Not sure it would work tho, allot of people post  big pictures. If you change the resolution on the computer it will change everything else to. (higher resolution smaller print icons, etc.
