How To Easily Change Your Screen Settings

The standard screen setting of 800 x 600 pixels makes everything on your screen bigger, but you can't fit as much into your screen area.  Thus you have to do lots of "scrolling," which is annoying and chops up your viewing area.

To change your screen setting to 1024 x 768 pixels is easy, do this: (If you like you can print this out)

1. Put your mouse pointer anywhere on your computer screen and "right click," which will open a small grey box next to your mouse pointer.  Note:  if you can't see your screen because there is a program in the way, either close or minimize that program.

2. Put your mouse pointer on the line in the grey box that says "properties," and left click on that line.

3. A larger box will open with tabs across the top, one of which should say "settings."  Left click on the "settings" tab.

4. You will see a sliding bar that says "Screen resolution," move the bar until you see 1024 by 768 pixels displayed under the sliding bar.

5. At the bottom of the box, left click on the "Apply" button.

6. Your screen will turn black for a moment while it adjusts to the new size, and this is normal.

7. A popup window will appear asking if you want to keep these new desktop settings, left click "Yes."

8. You're done!  It might take a few minutes to get used to seeing more in your browser window, but I think you'll like it.  You'll certainly enjoy this new Hill Cumorah Pageant web site better.

9. If you still prefer your old screen settings, just follow the above steps again, only put the setting back to 800 x 600 pixels.
