I am running MicroSoft XP Home Edition OS on a Dell Inspiron 9300 with IE 8 and the print in the SubTray and menu bars is so small it is very hard to read must be about a 6 font size. Anyone know how to enlarge the text size?

Try holding down your control key and rolling the mouse wheel

Thanks but that only increases and decreases the print in the web page.

Ok, this is what changes text size for the menu bar:
go to START
go to CONTROL PANNEL
go to DISPLAY
go to APPEARANCE
go to ADVANCED
under ITEM find MENU
click on it to highlight
under FONT change size to 10
click OK a couple of times
That will work, but only for the menu bar text.
Nothing to it. Try.
