When I am typing mails and documents, the screen will suddenly zoom in or out, without any input from me. It is making me crazy. Can someone provide advice on how to fix this? I am a true end-user and I am very intimidated about moving into system aspects of the computer. I need very specific step-by-step directions. Thanks so much.1 person needs an answerI do too

What type of Mouse are you using and do you mean out of focus? nass -- http://www.nasstec.co.uk

re: screen zooms without command Using Windows XP on Dell laptop with touchpad. Computer is one year old, but problem only arose within last few weeks. I cannot see that I am doing anything different or created anything different. Thanks for your help.D.

re: screen zooms (I didn't answer both of your questions) Not out of focus - the entire screen zooms down to tiny or up to huge where I can see only a small portion of it. I can get it "back" by using Ctrl-MINUS or Ctrl-plus but it happens frequently for now apparent reason and interrupts work flow. I have been trying to watch my fingers to ensure that I do not accidentally touch other keys which might trigger a zoom-in or zoom-out. It remains a mystery nuisance.

Can you tell me what model number is the DELL and is it XP Home or XP Pro? nass -- http://www.nasstec.co.uk
