I have a Lenovo Thinkpad that works great when I'm at work(in docking station). &nbsp;When I come home and place it in my docking station I don't see the same desktop that I see at work. &nbsp;I have two monitors in addition to my thinkpad at work and I extend my desktop. &nbsp;When I get home (where I only have 1 monitor in addition to my thinkpad) my desktop shows up HUGE. &nbsp;I can't see any of my icons because they're so large.<br />

I'm sure its probably something to do with the stupid mouse pad. &nbsp;I turned off the click zoom feature but I still can't get my icons back to their original size.

I have a Lenovo Thinkpad that works great when I'm at work(in docking station).  When I come home and place it in my docking station I don't see the same desktop that I see at work.  I have two monitors in addition to my thinkpad at work and I extend my desktop.  When I get home (where I only have 1 monitor in addition to my thinkpad) my desktop shows up HUGE.  I can't see any of my icons because they're so large.

Desktop Icons are Huge

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.

Laptops Notebooks

A monitor or a display is an electronic visual display for computers, usually comprised of the display device, circuitry, casing, and power supply. The display device in modern monitors is typically a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) thin panel, while older monitors used a cathode ray tube (CRT) about as deep as the screen size. They are connected to the computer via VGA, DVI, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, LVDS or other proprietary connectors and signals.
