right click a blank spot on the desk top. Choose "properties" from the
menu. Then click the "appearance" tab and see if you can find what you need
there.

That is exactly what I already DID do...... some things are a little bit
better - some aren't! How do I get my taskbar bigger and font on taskbar??
Any open window- whether it is a word doc or web page- like this-- font is
small and kind of light... Changing resolutions just made it worse....

Write a post that makes sense.

You did an update? An update of what exactly, or are we supposed to
guess?

Have you scanned for spyware & viruses?

What kind of video card? Driver version?

That would be a start.
