    Question

    OK, I'm not computer illiterate at all but I'm having a small problem....when I am browsing and click on a link to open something in another screen(browser) it used to pop up about 75% the size of my current screen(full size), but now it's just a little 4X4 inch suare that I have to maximize....no big deal but it gets on my nerves and I don't know why/how it happened....anyone have a remedy for me?

    Is this popping up in an actual browser (with all the toolbars) or just a window?

    You may have had your file associations changed. Did you install any programs recently?

    (it has nothing to do with virtual memory or paging files)

    the only thing different on my PC that's happened is the other day it kinda "froze up" and I hit CTRL+ALT+DELETE to shut it down and somehow I closed one of the programs that was running in the little window that pops up....it's been different ever since....

    try closing all your open browsers. Then open one browser, resize it to the size you want, and close it. If that doesn't work i'll need to do a little research.
