Go to Start; Programs; Accesories; System Tools; System Information.  From there it is under Components then Display. 


Or right-click My Computer, chose Properties.  You are looking for Device Manager.  From there you find Display Adapters.  The graphics card is found there.  Right-click the graphics card in Display Adapters and select Update Driver.  That can fix lots of problems.  Old graphics card - which are still good - are a dime a dozen.  $5 on ebay.

@lilliput: what kind of problem are you having? Things look too big? Too small? extra wide margins all around? Or maybe you have lines (horizontal or vertical) on the screen? How long has this been happening?


While I agree that Update Driver is worth a shot, I wouldn't do it straight away.


Let's first answer these basic questions and then see.....

if you could boot up your computer and have an internet connection, I could remote into your computer to take a quick look. Let me know.
