I have a 17.3 inch screen and the web pages only take up about half of the screen and are too small to read. I went to the control panel and changed the size to 1.5 but it didn't help. Ant suggestions?

Change your display size with the custom sizing options on the main Display page... :geek:

Is it just web pages? If you're using Internet Explorer, click on the 'cog' icon in the top right of the window and you can check/change the zoom level. Maybe try 125%.

Your monitor should have control buttons on the bottom or side.
You can stretch your display to cover the entire screen from using the monitor controls.

edit-- If you have a button named "Auto" press it first.
