Help! Why this GPU display is so big and covered so much of my screen? It happened when I reset my laptop and it doesn't happened before

It seems like something reset your display resolution to a lower value, which is why everything looks larger. On your desktop, right-click, select “Display Settings,” and confirm that the resolution is at the suggested setting.

Thanks, It was on a lower resolution, as I just verified. The lettering appears a little hazy now that I changed it back. Any thoughts?

Usually, when the scale is incorrect, text becomes hazy. Additionally, try modifying the Display Settings’ scaling parameters. Windows will occasionally scale everything by default to 125% or higher after a reset.

Appreciate it, It appears somewhat better now that I changed the scaling, but it still is not nearly what it was. Do my drivers need to be updated or something?

If you have not already, you should definitely upgrade your GPU drivers. Download the most recent drivers for your model from the website of the GPU vendor (such as AMD or NVIDIA). That might assist in getting your display back to normal.
