    Good PM, I was trying to adjust my display size but something weird happened. I must have pressed something because now, I have my new display on top of the old one. If you look at the WIFI signal, the US flag and my thrash, you will notice that there are two of them, one on top of the other. How do i get out of this? TIA

    tried a reboot and didnt do anything. I have two sets of docks..lol, as you can see the frozen display shows the big thrash, and the active display has a normal size thrash.

    If that were to happen to me I would spare myself the headache and do a clean install. Unless there are less drastic measures out there...

    Uhm.. This could be weird and pretty rare...
    But.. Is there a chance that you took a screenshot of your desktop and used it as your background image? :D

    You could try undoing the changes you did with the resolution. See if it goes back to the way it was before.
