Hi: This is my first post here, so please be gentle.  I've had PCs since '92 but there's still a zillion things I don't KNOW about them.

I had to revive an older Compaq DESKTOP, XP Pro, SP3, 2.08gHZ, 704 M of RAM, 111 G hard drive and a Samsung flat screen.

I do not remember if it used to be this way or not, but most things displayed are too wide. I can see it in people’s faces and various other images. The problem seems to be worse within the browser (Firefox V. 27.0.1)

Also, most things, including text, were a bit fuzzy around the edges. I did fool around with the resolution and a few other settings and got most of the fuzziness out. An odd thing: The SLIDER bar for resolution adjusting would only go extreme left, extreme right, or right in the middle. As I remember on other PCs, it had at least 5 positions.

As far as I can tell there is no way to fix the image width problem with the monitor CONTROLS (the centering is okay). So I updated the monitor driver and now the problem is worse than it was, and to make matters even worse I cannot roll back to the previous driver; I guess it automatically deleted it.

And now the resolution slider has only TWO positions, extreme left or extreme right, and neither setting is any good. The text is no better than with the old driver, and some things on Firefox now go off-screen (horizontal scroll bar now appears). It never did that before.

Help?

Is it onboard video ? ?
Where did you get the DRIVERS from ? ?1) I don't know.

2) I used the "Update Driver" function through the Device Manager.Post the Model # of the PC and we'll have a looksee for ya...It's a Compaq Presario. Under System Tools/Info it says "PC133A-ABA SR1124NX NA430."
