So last night at work I finally figured out how to activate the S video cable so we could watch the UFC fights on the TV from my laptop. I'm not sure how I did it but now everything is supersized on my screen. It is so big that I have to scroll left and right to look at the whole screen on any web page. Even the icons on my desk top are massive. I have searched and tried different things but I can't seem to get it back to normal.
Thanks in advance!! BTW I have windows XP.....
 
You probably need to set the laptop for viewing on the laptop screen and not setup for video output. Its probably a function key and something on the number line... Or read the manual
 
right click on the desktop.....go to properties...click the setting tab and adjust the screen resolution....mine is set to 1024x768 and I rarely have to scroll side to side
 
Thanks guys, I got it. Finally!! Somehow when I changed the output to the S video cable it changed the size to compensate for the 2nd screen. I just had to change the resolution like DunesRunner said.
