Keep calm.

You should be able to get your screen resolution back through your control panel and your settings, shouldn't you? I'm on a Mac so I'm not sure what to do on a PC.

How do you access the internet? Through a small device attached that you plug in or through a box that is attached to a phone line then you connect to that wirelessly? If it is through the box, then switch the box off, wait for a minute, then switch it on again. This reboots it.

Through a wireless router which I turned off hours ago and turned back on again.

The screen resolution is buggered. I know how to get into the option to change it but the only options are the standard 600x800 and 7somethingx1something which are laptop settings not netbook settings. The resolution it was on before I stupidly changed it isn't available on the stupid little slider thingy.

As for the webpage issue, I am even more luddite than you.

Thanks TMAM. Threw myself on the mercy of The Bloke Up The Road. That link was almost right. Had to change the Advanced settings to some very odd resolution that is Not Recommended at all. I need a long lie down and a look at shoe websites.

No lj still.

When's DS2 arriving? I need cheering up.

Oh God. I unplugged everything. Absolutely everything. The microwave. The stereo. The lot.

Turned the electricity off at the wall.

Cried a bit.

Turned things back on one by one.

It's back.

LJ is back.

TMAM, will fb you...
