Depends on how you want to do it, you can right click on the desktop go to properties and go to display and advanced button and then from there change the DPI setting.\n\nIf that does not help you can set that setting back and go back to the display properties and go to appearance and there is a combo box / selection box that will allow you to change the font size. If that does not help please post back.

That happens sometimes on mine. You should be able to right-click the icon in the taskbar and Maximize or Resize it. It's probably more of an XP than a Dell problem.

in the operating system like on all windows stuff?\n\nRight click your desktop and select <properties>, <settings> and then slide the screen resolution bar to your preference\n\nIf on Websites  click <view>, then <text size> then choose a size you like

If running XP just hold the control key down and scroll your mouse wheel to make larger or smaller.\n\nOr you can click on "View" at top of screen and from the drop down put your cursor over "Text Size" and then select "Medium" as that is where most are set.

i have never seen this problem before - maybe you could be more detailed as to what it IS doing?\n\n//edit//\nafter seeing that picture, i believe i understand whats going on....play around with those dotted-line borders, and move them until you can see the taskbar window pane icons (the windows you have running and the windows you have up)\nbasically all that seems to have happened is that that specific part of the taskbar is being hidden due to the enlarged size of other parts (quick launch)\n\nif you still cant seem to get it, email me on superXero07@comcast.net, i should be able to help ya

Go to the start menu, then Accessibility, then run the accessibility wizard to change font size.\nAlso try running your resolution to 600X800 right click on desktop, then properties, then settings tab. Turn the slider down to decrease resolution.

Right click on the desktop of your computer then click on PROPERTIES.  Choose the APPEARANCE tab.  Under ITEM, select ICON.  Pick any size you desire and click on APPLY and check if your icons have changed sizes. =)\n\nFor language settings, click START, choose SETTINGS, then click on the CONTROL PANEL.  Click REGIONAL SETTINGS and under the GENERAL tab, I think you can change the language settings of your computer. =) (I'm not really sure if you still have to download language packs because i haven't changed the language of my computer yet.)\n\nI can't answer your questions about icons yet.  I'll try to find out then I'll get back to you. =)

Go to the tool bar.  Select "View" & "Text Size".\n\nThere's also a shortcut:  if you hold down the control key & then roll on the rolly-scrolly thing of your mouse, it'll change the size too.\n\nCool?
