Why after leaving the PC in sleep mode all night have I logged back on to find the screen is zoomed-in (or supersized) & all icons & such are massively oversized? Nothing fits on the screen & even icons in the toolbar & clock time etc are huge. My desktop background goes off the page & looks stretched....

I havent changed any settings & naturally I have restarted, switched it off & back on etc.

Resolution has changed for some reason, have a search as I've heard of quirky things happening after sleep on other machines. Just change it back for the time being.

Why not either turn it off, or just turn the monitor off?

Never seen the point in sleep mode tbh..

It put itself in sleep mode iirc. However with sleep mode I can just tap a key or move the mouse & it's alive again, not taking 30 secs to boot up & need passwords/logging in.

I've just done a system restore to Thursday & it's OK now. Just odd.
