Well, ever since, several of you have been asking if there&#39;s a way to do the same thing in Windows XP. I wasn&#39;t sure off the top of my head, but I figured there had to be, so I made a note to myself to check on it. But before I had a chance to look, one of our loyal readers e-mailed me with the answer. So, today&#39;s quick tip is coming to you thanks to Mr. Dick Furst. Let&#39;s check it out!<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font>If you want to increase (or even decrease) the size of the objects <a href=\"http:\/\/www.coastalrock.com\/\">best cialis<\/a>  on your computer, in Windows XP, go to <strong>Start<\/strong>, <strong>Control Panel<\/strong> (make sure you&#39;re in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.worldstart.com\/tips\/tips.php\/412\" title=\"http:\/\/www.worldstart.com\/tips\/tips.php\/412\">classic view<\/a>) and double click on the <strong>Display<\/strong> icon. Next, click on the <strong>Settings<\/strong> tab and then hit the <strong>Advanced<\/strong> button. Under the <strong>General<\/strong> tab, you can select which <strong>DPI setting<\/strong> you prefer. You can choose from <strong>Normal size<\/strong>, <strong>Large size<\/strong> or you can even make a <strong>Custom size<\/strong> just for you.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font>Once you choose your setting, you will be prompted to restart your computer. When it boots back up, you&#39;ll be able to notice the size difference of the objects on your computer. Now, if you also want to change your font size, go back to <strong>Start<\/strong>, <strong>Control Panel <\/strong>and click on the <strong>Display<\/strong> icon again. From there, click on the <strong>Appearance<\/strong> tab and then use the <strong>Font size<\/strong> drop down box to choose between <strong>Normal<\/strong>, <strong>Large<\/strong> or <strong>Extra Large<\/strong>. Then just hit <strong>OK<\/strong> and you&#39;ll be all set. Your XP computer is now set up just the way you want it.
