bizarre problem with XP

[apple]

I have a older Dell PC which i use with its own dell CRT monitor.recently the screen has been slowly expanding on its own. I have re-set the screen size using the monitor and through the control panel only to find it goes back to the same problem when i log back onto the PC.

 

Esp the start button i slowly sinks down beneath the bottom of the screen if i leave it.

 

 

Any ideas would be fantastic

 

 

Thanks

Hello apple and welcome to the forum.

 

Strange events you have there.

 

Have you tried an update of your graphics card driver and use the monitor controls to set back to factory reset/default?

Being an older CRT monitor I would look at the possibilities of borrowing a new or newer TFT or similar monitor first to see if the problem still happens with that.

Lets try and isolate whether it is the monitor or the graphics control.

I have updated the Intel graphics driver. and most of the updates are up to date.it only seems to be expanding on the bottom of the page now.don't have any friends with desktop pc's-there all into the macs and laptops round my way.
