    I'm assuming this is a problem with stuff just being "too small" and not blurriness or something like that. If that is the case and you want to adjust the resolution so it's XGA (1024 x 768) by going to Control Panel > Display > Settings > Screen Res then you'll lose lose clarity and the display will note be as good as a native XGA resolution display. It sounds to me that you should try and ship it back to Dell and do a swap, but I think there's a restocking fee of 15% you'll lose on the laptop you have. If I'm wrong on that maybe others could correct me.

    One other thing you could do is go to the Appearance settings in your display and choose "Large Text" and "Large Icons", but that only does so much.

    I would go with Abaxter's suggestion. If you are in the states, then you have 21 days from the date of invoice (not ship date) to return your system. You are refunded for the total amount minus shipping and handling (I think Canada and Dell's E&A has the 15% restock fee :confused: ).

    You can find more details here which includes the return form and directions.

    Hope this helps,
