What you need to do is turn on the Large Fonts to improve resolution and readability To do this, go to the desktop Icon and choose the Properties by right clicking Then you follow the screen directions to Setting and Advanced and pick the Large Fonts When the ok box appears, click twice to close the Advanced and Properties dialogs to get the Large Fonts activated If you have an older version of Windows you may need to Re-boot the computer to get the Large Fonts to take effect.
