A computer question

Terranical · 17-05-2014, 13:58

I've recently replaced my old laptop with one running Windows 7, and when I open the club site the scrolling display of members 4x4's shows only the very top of the pic, whereas my old laptop with Vista showed the whole picture - anyone got any idea why this is happening?

is it just the size of the screen and how its set..ctrl and -/+ alter the size

if its not that might have to wait for jim or clive

depends on the browser you are using - if its IE11, then you need to either add the site to compatibility view, or turn off compatibility view all together. Adding the site is probably the solution though, see here:

Better still roll back to ie10 or install another browser.

Go to the top right of internet explorer window and click on the cog wheel and select about ie as this will tell you what version you have. Post back if you need distractions for compatibility or rolling back to ie10

I was a non believer,but chrome is amazing, would not go back now.

jims-terrano · 17-05-2014, 23:13

Brig give I'll wait for Windows 9 to come out, hopefully that'll be a sorted operating system.

When I bought the new laptop I noticed that most seemed to come preloaded with Win8, didn't want it so I settled for Win7 - seems to be stable and do what I want with no histrionics!

glad you're sorted!

Chrome is good, but doesn't solve everything. I don't mind IE11, though Chrome is the better browser.

chrome all the way, dont even both with firefox any more.

mind have chrome on tablets and smart phones so easier to stick with one.

only time use ie is at work as some of our intranet is built on it.
