Notebook screen stretches out everything

I got a new notebook (Aspire 7738G) and I tried to start BNet, but that crashed my notebook so I turned it off.
When I restarted notebook everything had low graphics (already noticed some graphic settings suddenly changed) and it now stretches all web pages or windows icons like on a normal screen, but I got a widescreen so everything now looks odd and especially when googling for pictures it just messes them up.

Any ideas? :(

[EDIT] Well apparently it turned my resolution to that of a non-broadscreen notebook (with this being broadscreen) so that's what messed it up >_>
I guess it's solved unless it changed even more (like some color settings that got bugged).

Seems to me like your resolution is fucked. Tried changing it? If you have a graphics adapter, open that up and it should be some where in the settings.

Yes it was the resolution apparently
It's normally 1600 x 900, but it somehow became 1280 x 720 or something and made everything blurry and stretchy ._.

W3 isn't supposed to run on widescreen. Maybe, when forced to close, your computer saved the last screen settings and loaded them when your computer rebooted?
