How do you adjust screen resolution?

Adjusting Screen Resolution

START - Settings - Control Panel - Display. Click on the "Settings" tab. On the lower right corner there is a slide bar called "Size Area". Slide the bar to the size you want. If icons are too big, slide the bar to the right. Click "Apply" and a message will pop up and click "OK". The screen will resize and ask you if you want to keep it. Click "Yes" if you want to or no if you want another size. After you are happy with the correct size, click "OK" to close the Display settings. Done.
