What resolution screen did you order? If it's  a high-resolution screen, there's only so much you can do -- it sounds like you should consider returning the sysetm and re-ordering with a lower resolution screen.

What OS are you using?  Given the model of laptop, I'm guessing it's Vista?

 

What resolution are you running?

You obviously don't have to run it at the maximum resolution, if everything looks too small?

 

What happens when you change the font size in 'Personalize'?  Did you restart the system, to 'apply' the changes?

Here's the correct procedure for how to 'Change the font size in Windows Vista' :emotion-55:
