Check the update history* and see if you just had a automatic driver update, or manually update the drivers if not.
It's also possibly worth removing the monitor from the devices list and then scanning for it again.
I had to change my graphics card recently because a minor fix in a game meant my card didn't have sufficient ram to play at 1080: the best I could get then was 800x600 which was horrific to look at. But the fix was nothing to do with graphics (it was an anti-modder fix) so almost anything these days can affect seemingly unrelated systems!

So, if this is using Intel Graphics, they do some weird things. I don't have the menu in front of me, but upon opening the Intel Graphics Control Panel app, there's a maintain display scaling checkbox and if it's not showing the proper resolution, change the refresh rate until you find the one you want. I've had to battle through this a couple of times with different monitors on our production floor. Between those two settings you should be able to get where you want to be.

I had this problem with a new Windows 11 laptop that I attempted to downgrade to the Windows 10 system it was replacing. The driver for the new adaptor was written only for Windows 11. I had to upgrade to Windows 11 before I could install the driver and fix the problem.

Something odd happened with win10 overnight. Not serious for me, but my desktop was scrambled.

You should check the Windows display settings. See what the display resolution is set to, also scaling, advanced scaling settings, advanced display settings, and as I remember there are some more settings for accessibility.
These can all affect the display.

I just got an email from Quora asking me to answer a question: "What is the speed limit on roads in the United Kingdom (UK) that have 30 miles per hour signs?"
The gene pool needs a healthy dose of chlorine again ...

I thought they'd got rid of all of those in Wales[^]? Or have they not changed the signs yet?

No, what the Senedd did was change the default speed limit - the one in areas with street lighting unless otherwise signed.
Some of the areas which were signed as 30 have been changed to 20, but many haven't changed and they are still 30 zones.
It's been done quite intelligently round here: the town itself is 20 (and signed as such), but the bypass is 40 when passing houses, 50 the rest of the time (and signed appropriately) with a 30 section round the ASDA roundabout (signed again).
I think it's a bad idea though: it'll increase air pollution as everyone will be in a lower gear, increase prices as deliveries will take longer so there will be fewer per van / truck per day and I doubt it will save lives as it's likely to be largely ignored (just as the 30 limit often is) unless the whole country is blanketed in speed cameras ...
It may even increase accidents and injuries due to the "risk compensation factor" (just like the introduction of compulsory seatbelts caused more deaths as accidents got bigger so donor organs weren't usable when the victims arrived at hospital).

I don't know about the UK, but I suspect most decisions in the USA regarding speed limits, stop signs, and other traffic controls are based less on driver/pedestrian safety and more on increased revenue from violations.

The reply could be: "30 kilometers per hour (in most cases)"
|
|
|
|

I was gonna say, this is a trick question, as there should be no signs in the UK that should be using mph...

With a very few exceptions, speed limit signs have a number, and that is all. Unlike foreigners, we all know what they refer to.

Not quite in UK. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metrication_in_the_United_Kingdom[^]:
Apart from the sale of fuel, which was metricated in the 1980s, motorists have seen little metrication. Speedometers and mandatory information on car advertisements such as fuel consumption are given in both metric and imperial units. The 1994 TSRGD permitted the use of metric units alongside imperial units for width and height warning signs and dual metric/imperial signs became mandatory from March 2015. Distances and speed restrictions are shown only in imperial units.
(My underscoring)

We have perfectly good measurement systems of our own, we don't need metrication.

The only obvious answer is to convert to Kelvin and reply. "The correct speed for this sign is 439 Kelvin".

Well at least in the US far as I can tell on highways the speed limit is actually about 5-10 miles higher than actual posted limit.
Except when you cross from one State to another. Then you should always slow down to 5 miles below the limit.
Actually the first point is not as odd as it sounds since highway speed limits are often set using at least some input as to what speed drivers are actually going. So that means that, on average, some drivers will be going faster (not just the idiots that think the are on a racetrack.)
