Could I have a virus? McAffe is not picking anything up. HELP HELP HELP!!!! I am really begining to hate computers!
START button > Settings > Control Panel

Click on the Display icon

Click on the Settings tab

If Resolution is on 640x480, try 800x600; if it's on 800x600 try 1024x768 (or try 1024x768 if 800x600 still looks wrong)

Color palette = High, Font size = Small

Click OK

It may flicker and resize, then ask if you want to keep the settings. If it looks okay, click OK or Yes.

Hope that helps; if that doesn't fix it I have no clue what's wrong with it.


ETA: you may want to download and try another anti-virus program; a good free one is AVG Anti-Virus. Go to http://www.grisoft.com/ and click on AVG Free Edition on the left menu bar.... see if that helps any.
