I am trying to use the Security Update CD for XP Home. I log on as
administrator in safe mode and my screen resolution has changed so that I am
unable to read a lot of the instructions. I can't scroll. I try to change the
resolution but can't move the slider. My normal resolution (not in safe
mode) is 1024/768.
I would appreciate any help.
P.S. Can one live without this update?
