im guessing its windows 7 but its similar enough for xp/vista
right click somewhere on the desktop (not on a file), then click Screen Resolution
you should just have to drag the slider across to the right until its at its maximum, if not play about until you happy with it.
if you get it wrong and screen goes black - wait 15 seconds and it will revert back if you dont confirm.

If you're using Internet Explorer, press Ctrl and '0' together to reset the zoom back to 100% in case it's got set really high
by mistake.

^ good call, if its only on the internet, check the bottom right hand corner of the window, there should be a magnifying glass with a plus in it,
check the number next to it is 100%, not anything higher

Glad you got it sorted  It's really easy to accidentally set the zoom level too high because you can change it by holding down the CTRL key
and scrolling the centre mouse wheel up and down as I found out once!
