SYMPTOMS
If your screen resolution is 800x600 pixels or less and you open the System Restore utility while Magnifier is running, you may be unable to access the buttons at the bottom of the System Restore window.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur if the System Restore window is larger than your screen area allows.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, increase the size of the screen area. To do this, follow these steps:


 * 1) Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
 * 2) Double-click the Display icon, and then click the Settings tab.
 * 3) Increase the screen area by moving the slider bar to the right until the resolution is greater than 800x600 pixels, and then click OK.

If your display adapter does not support resolutions greater than 800x600 pixels, you can use hotkeys to operate System Restore. Use the ALT+ combinations listed below to reach the control buttons on the following pages of the System Restore utlity:
