Hello All,

I have Windows Vista Business Edition. My Screen resolution is set to 1280 x
800 on a Laptop computer. Does anyone know how to make the icons a smaller
size?

Or how i can get my video driver on my HP Compaq v6000AU to accept a small
screen res?

Running NVIDIA GeForce GO 6150

Regards,
Mel

Right-click the desktop, point to View, and then click Medium Icons, or Classic Icons.
(Classic icons are the smallest size.)
