Hold down the ctrl key, and roll your mouse wheel forward and backward until you reach the correct font size :) It's a common mistake

Windows XP text size is too small. How do I make it largerr?

Click on your Desktop with the right mouse button and select Properties from the Shortcut menu that appears. In the Properties window, click on the Appearance tab. At the bottom of the Appearance tab you will see "Font size:" click on that drop-down menu and you can select Normal, Large Fonts, or Extra-Large Fonts. This is how you change the size of the text that is specific to Windows.
To change the size of the text in Internet Explorer, open up Internet Explorer and find the View menu (it should be near the top left of the screen) click on View and in the menu that pops down, hover your mouse over Text Size so the menu will pop out to the right, here you can select Smallest, Smaller, Normal, Large, Larger, and Largest.
If you would like to increase the size of everything in Internet Explorer, you can hover over Zoom in the View pop down menu and change how much you are zoomed in, this will increase everything for you!

I hope this helps! If not, please comment back and let us know!

Letters

If you mean just for your internet browser window, hold CTRL and scroll your mouse scroll wheel.

If you don't have scroll wheel on your mouse, and you are using Internet Explorer, go to the view menu, then to TEXT SIZE.

If you want to make the letters on your desktop and desktop windows bigger, go to:

display properties -> settings tab -> advanced -> increase the dpi setting

Or decrease your resolution, right click on your desktop, click properties, then click the settings tab and lower your resolution.

Hope this helps!
