Water and Laptops?

[IRISH BULL]

I just spilled about a tablespoon of water on my laptop. How bad am I screwed?

 

I shook it and took the back off and it was pretty much dry.

So far so good. We'll see I guess.

Water is fine, I wouldn't use it until it drys though. Sticky stuff like soda is when you start to get screwed.

OK, thanks. Another question, how do I make webpages bigger. Not just the text, but the whole page.

 

For example, when I look at this website, the grey area on either side is a lot bigger than it was beofre. I forgot to mention, I got a new laptop that gets plugged into a docking station.

Try changing your resolution under display settings

Its at its max resoluton 1680 by 1050. So I guess I gotta get used to it. It looks different from the other laptop.

The other laptop is probably something more standard or along the lines of 1024 x 786 or 800 x 600

 

Try 1024 x 768 and see what it looks like, I bet the other laptop is set to that

It keeps telling that isn't correct and goes back to the max setting. No biggee, just gotta get used to it.

No, my dumbass did it. Brand new work laptop also. And I just gotta keep my daughters grubby little hands off of the screen.

Try holding down Ctrl and using the scroll wheel on your mouse (If you have one).

Standard web setting now these days is 1280 x 800. Or close equivelent. There is a way to override the settings so it doesn't change back. There should be a prompt asking if you want to keep the new resolution settings. You should click yes before it times out.
