Qagak · **Programs Don't Fit Screen, Chop Off -** 10-02-2009, 01:47 AM

I'm asking about this because I've looked around the forums for a few days & haven't found any tips for this issue in XP on a Mini 9 with the latest BIOS (A05, right?). I found lots of posts for OSX, so I know it's nothing new....

Some of my programs chop off/don't fit the screen to the point where I can't click/see the options. Firefox does it when in the options sometimes. For other programs, I am unable to resize the windows.

The temp fix is to hit Enter. Another program asks me to save settings when I go to another tab, so that often saves the day.

Is there a fix?

Thanks!

Also, you can Auto-hide the taskbar for a bit more room.

Thank you for so kindly answering my question. Thanks a lot! Autohiding the taskbar does give a bit more room. I forgot about that feature.

I will try moving the window with the keyboard at some point.

Thanks again!
