Personalization windows

I am rather new to Vista Premium (6 weeks). When I first did the display
settings and screensaver, everything was fine. Now when I go to change these
settings, the bottom half of the window does not show (the power settings
button for example). I can tab down and activate the button, but I can't see
it. I have also noticed that the right hand side of the outlook express
options window is cut off. It won't allow me to resize the window so I can
see everything. What the heck did I do? Any way to get it back to normal.
Could it be an installed update problem?

Thanks,
Gary H.

You lowered your screen resolution maybe? Change it to 1024x768 or higher,
or whatever the native resolution of the monitor is if yours is LCD.

Didn't change the resolution. After posting I remembered restore points, and
restored to before the last update. Everything is fine. Sorry to bother.
I would like to thank everyone (with a few exceptions) for the helpful
posts. You have been answering others problems, but helping me learn this
new OS at the same time. Thanks again.
GaryH.
