It was just a few hours ago and since SR (system restore) won't touch our files, it's time to use it.

I was playing a game on my laptop and somehow everything on my laptop screen stretched out: the game, my desktop - everything. My icons don't even all fit on my desktop anymore.
I tried changing the resolution but I'm pretty sure that its still set to the resolution it was at before. None of the other resolution settings fixed it either.
I thought maybe I could hold CTRL and scroll on my desktop screen and that might fix it. It made my icons even BIGGER. I tried scrolling the other way to make them smaller again, but it won't work! So now I have two problems!
If anyone knows how to fix this stretched out screen and huge icons on my desktop, I'd really appreciate it.
