Question:
Eye Strain Pain
I just got a new laptop, and I must say the native resolution looks great, but kills the eyes [17"monitor(1440x900)]. On my desktop computer I keep the resolution low[19"monitor(800x600)] in windows, just so it is easier on the eyes. Even though I have higher end gaming monitor and video card. But when I try to lower the resolution on the laptop, well lets just say it looks pretty crappy.
Is there a guide somewhere as to how to adjust things in windows to make all icons and text look larger and good? I can adjust a few things but it still doesn't look that great. I can make some fonts larger, but they need to be bolder.
Thanks.

I can make some fonts larger, but they need to be bolder.
Do the following:
Control Panel->Display->Appearance->Advanced and then select the Item ("Icon", for example), and choose "B" to bold it. You can also change the font itself and its size.

Thanks. That helped with most of the small fonts, but is there a way to change the fonts in some programs and message windows, that are not listed in the drop down menu, mentioned by SpacemanSpiff? Thanks.
