Changing the Screen Size Using Windows XP
Change the Screen Size
Screen resolution settings determine the amount of information your monitor displays. At low settings, screen contents appear as if viewed through a close-up camera lens—you see a relatively small amount of information (only part of a spreadsheet or Web page, for example), but the items themselves (text, pictures, etc.) appear relatively large. High-resolution settings provide a bird's-eye view—more information is visible but the items on the screen appear smaller. In Windows XP, changing screen resolution settings to suit your preferences is easy.

If you are using software that disables pop-up browser windows (such as the Google toolbar or Internet Explorer 6), you may need to disable this feature for the Digital Collections site in order to view archived materials such as exam papers which appear in pop-up windows.
Internet Explorer 6 on Window XP (service pack 2)
The version of IE 6 included in the Service Pack 2 version of Window XP has a built in pop-up blocker.
To allow pop-ups for a particular site you need to add that site to a list:
- From the 'Tools' menu select 'Pop-up Blocker > Pop-up Blocker Settings...'
- In the 'Pop-up Blocker Settings' dialog box type the name of the site i.e. http://www.saivam.org.uk for 'Digital Collections' and click the 'Add' button.

You can disable pop-up blocking for a particular site such as Digital Collections by simply clicking the pop-up blocker button  on the Google toolbar after you have logged into Digital Collections (not at the logon screen).
