Yes, I re-installed 5.3 and discovered that my screen size was set to
1280x1024 insteadof what I had - 1024x768 - quite a change. I can
still read everything so maybe I will leave it there and see if I can
get used to the increase space in my desktop. I have to check what it
does to the games I play, they seem a lot slower. Maybe the screen
size changed there too.

But 1280x1024 is a 5x4 ratio resolution and will make everything appear wider than it
actually is.

Instead, go to 1280x960 to get back a proper 4x3 ratio and I think you'll be happier
