I spent a lot of cash for the best, highest-resolution flat-panel LCD display on the market,
but everything on the screen is too small. Did I waste my money?
THE FIX: Depends on how much
you spent! But the good news is that you can make most things on your screen
bigger to compensate for the tiny pixels. To make text bigger, right-click an
empty area of your desktop, click Properties, and then click the Appearance tab.
From the "Font size" drop-down, you can choose either Large or Extra Large, but
for better results, click the Advanced button to enlarge specific elements
(title bar, menus, tooltips, etc.) to your taste.
Start by clicking Active Window in the little preview window at
the top of the dialog box(or selecting Active Title Bar
from the Item list), and then choosing a larger number in the Size list in the
second row (next to the Font list). Do the same for Inactive Title Bar, Menu,
Message Box, Palette Title, and Tooltip.
