How do you fix a burned out monitor?

Laptop-Monitor via VGA cable. Monitor displays laptop size. How to fix?

  • I have a Dell Inspirion 1525 laptop connected to a Samsung B2330 monitor via vga cable. I get 3 options for display when I hit the Fn key which is just laptop, just monitor, or monitor and laptop. When I choose both laptop and monitor to display simultaneously, the screen size is perfect for laptop and monitor. However when I choose to display on monitor only the screen is maximized to fit the size of my monitor, but all of the icons are the size they would be on the laptop. If I zoom in it makes the page too large for the monitor so zooming in DOES NOT WORK. What should I do?

  • Answer:

    Right click the desktop toto icons and play around with the icon sizes. And if that doesn't work try looking at the bottom right corner of your screen for a little monitor thumbnail click that and it would bring up a graphics menu. See if anything in there helps
