Desktop Icons Huge and Screen Resolution

S

SJMP

Hello

I have a IBM thinkpad t60 and my desktop Icons are huge any way to get them
really small. My screen resolution maxes out at 1024x768. I have the latest
Vista drivers for this intel chipset and adapter. Any thing I need to do in
the OS?

If your question is how to change the size of the desktop icons...with
the desktop in focus, hold down the CTRL key and move your mouse wheel.
