Problem viewing folders

I tried to change the display settings in my 'preferences' or 'personalise'
folder, clicking on a bigger resolution made the display too big for my
screen but then reverted back because i could not confirm it. Since then any
folder windows I open appear off screen. The start bar and programs such as
internet explorer open fine on screen and maximise as normal, but all folder
windows, recycle bin, control panel etc appear to open off screen. I've
changed my start bar settings so i can access control panel by expanding
folders in the classic way but i still cannot access my 'personalise' folder.
i cannot thing of any other way to get it back to normal and I've only been
using Vista for an hour.
Thanks.

Re: Problem viewing folders

Hi,

System Restore, go back to a time that predates your change.
