Microsoft Word is stuck in a low resolution like safe mode

Try running a Diagnostic: Running Microsoft Office Diagnostics from within Excel/Word Click the Microsoft Office button Click on the Excel/Word Options button to bring up the Excel Options dialog box (at the bottom of window) Click on the Resources button in the left hand pane Click on the Diagnose button in the right hand pane Click Continue Click Run Diagnostics Running Microsoft Office Diagnostics from the Start Menu Click on the Start button Click All Programs Click Microsoft Office folder Click Microsoft Office Tools Click Microsoft Office Diagnostics Click Continue Click Run Diagnostics MIKE http://www.skeptic.com/

That was great and it did find one error but Word has me stuck in low resolution.

Is it just Word or do other programs exhibit the same problem? Have you installed any new Add-ons or any new programs? Have a look at some of your options: Click the Microsoft Office button Click on the Excel/Word Options button to bring up the Excel Options dialog box (at the bottom of window) Click Advanced There is a "Show Document Content" section and a "Display" section See if anything looks out of place. You could try to Restore back to a point where everything looked OK. MIKE http://www.skeptic.com/
