Screens display @ 125%
I always have to press F11 to activate the task bar at the bottom of the screen and my screens display @ 125%. When I change the % to 100 on the view option it always goes back to 125%. Any ideas?

I went in and made these changes but they were already set to the values you gave. My screen still displays @ 125% and I still have to hit F11 to get the bar at the bottom of the page that shows the pages that are open to come back on the screen. In some cases F11 will not bring it back on.Tim T
