You can shut down the computer with ctrl-esc to bring up the start menu, then cursor up once to the Shut Down menu entry. Try this first. If the screen still comes up in 200x320 resolution where the icons are giants, the try the following.

Reset the display mode with the keyboard.
1. Press the Ctrl key and the Esc key to to see the Start menu.
2. Press the up arrow key until the Settings command is selected.
3. Press the right arrow key and you will see the sub-menu with Control Panel selected at the top.
4. Press the Enter key and the Control Panel will appear.
5. Press the down arrow key to move down until the Display Icon is selected.
6. Press the Enter key.
7. At the top, select the Settings Tab.
8. In the "Screen area" select your normal display resolution (800x600 at least).

This will restore your display resolution.

In our current version of Microstudio under development, we have added significant new code to the program to prevent the display being left in the low resolution mode. There is no easy way for us to display Karaoke on a PC computer without changing the resolution, or requiring an expensive display card.
