Web page too big for the monitor

[TicTok]

Hi guys,

I'm sure you can help me, feel a little stupid asking.

 

Problem is, some web pages I view do not fit on the whole page.

One in particular is a Mp3 Music shop calle Beatport. There is a search bar at the top left of the screen but my page only shows half of it.

 

There is a scroll bar at the bottom but it won't scroll over far enough.

I have tried adjusting the resolution but it just make the text squash up.

 

Can anyone help me?

Hi TicTok

 

Welcome to Extreme Tech Support - Free PC Help

 

What size is your monitor please and what resolution is it set to?

[RandyL]

Give me a few web addresses TicTok and I'll check it out.

 

Keep in mind the pages may be coded badly in which case it's the fault of the web master and there is nothing you can do.

Hi

 

If you are using IE in the bottom right corner there is a zoom setting. Set it so it fits your screen.

[TicTok]

Cheers for the fast reply.

I have tried the zoom function, it still cuts off the whole of the left side of the page.

www.beatport.com is one of the website's in particular.

I have a 15" Monitor and it is set to 800x600. I've tried putting it to the middle but it blurs all the text.

Hello and Welcome to FPCh Tic. :)

 

A stupid question but is your monitor properly aligned? You might be experiencing the scrolling problems as the monitor might be incorrectly aligned?

Set your screen resolution to 1024 x 768.

[TicTok]

I've tried that too. There is an auto setting on the monitor but still the same problem.

Would that not effect all websites rather than just a few?

[Dalo Harkin]

take it this has only recently happened - have you changed anything - graphics drivers etc?

[TicTok]

Actually it happened a while ago, I've just been dealing with it. Like I say it's only a few web pages it effects.

 

I have had to reinstall windows recentley, due to a virus, but I reinstalled all the drivers that came with the pc when I bought it.

Seems the problem is with the website itself as Randy mentioned previously. The site you mentioned looks fine to me. Can you please post a screen shot to explain yourself more clearly? :)

What make and exact model is your PC TicTok as you may need an updated graphics driver?

[TicTok]

Set your screen resolution to 1024 x 768.

 

Yeah that sorted it, Cheers.

[maynardvdm]

Good to hear it is sorted. Any other questions, you know where to ask :)
