    Every time I boot up my laptop, I have to re-adjust my homepage so that it fits the whole screen. Can't I do anything to keep the homepage the same size all the time? My OS is Vista. Thanks.

    Read about the terms maximize and restore size of a window in Help and Support or do a search of the forums. You may need to maximize the window, close (exit) the program, then reopen it. You may want to try making your settings, closing the program, then restarting Vista. Hopefully that will save the settings.

    You may be using a screen resolution that is not "standard" for the screen. You should find the screen resolution settings by right-clicking a blank space on the desktop. Choose a resolution that matches the shape of your screen, for example, 1280 X 960 is a 4:3 ratio for a square screen, 1280 X 768 is a 16:10 ratio for a wide screen. This can get complicated if you are sometimes connecting an external monitor to the laptop and you will need to adjust settings for both. You may need to read in the laptop's User Guide for suggested screen resolutions.
