A real challenge, Windows 95 problem...

[Benny_Lava]

Hi, I got a laptop in my shop, it is huge... Siemens nixdorf scenic mobile 700. It is used in a automechanic shop to analyze modern cars... The problem is very simple, the screen of the laptop is very small 800x600 maximum resolution, and somebody got their hands on the laptop and changed display settings, setting the fonts to 500%, so when windows boots i can see only 20% of the screen, everything i super large, I went to safe mode, and changed those settings to normal couple of times, and it doesn't work, it can't change it for some reason, it says ok- restart computer, but when I do restart the 500% is still there, I have tried in normal mode ( by connecting a second monitor so I could see what i'm doing) and same thing. Any ideas... And is there a way in win95 to change all the settings on the OS to default values...? this problem is very challenging and frustrating... Thank you!

Check with another Windows 95 machine and find out the keyboard shortcuts to reach the display settings and use those shortcuts on your laptop.

Reboot with safe mode and uninstall display driver from device manager. When system will reboot it will ask you for display driver, just install them.
