    Use XP Home with SP-2 and IE6.0. Is it possible to reset the display playertices to those that were originally used by manufacturer (Dell)???

    I have not seen that facility - what is your basic problem?

    The only two settings are likely to be screen resolution and colour depth - I doubt colour management was set.

    When I open web sites the font size that appears is overly large to the point wher I have to reduce the size of the letters considerably. I do have an eye problem and perhaps some time in past I set a convention ( not sure that is the right word) and that is now causing problem. Is there a place where visually handicapped users of XP can learn about these options?

    Thanks

    In Internet Explorer > View > Text size gives you several settings.

    Is everything OK in Windows in general?

    Or if you have a mouse with a scroll wheel, hold down the Ctrl button and scroll up and down until you can see clearly.
