I have a new 21" monitor First the monitor works fine and I love it. But I have the resolution set at 1600x1200 and the fonts on alot of websites are to small I have the fonts set to the largest setting in IE 6 ? and in windows 2000 still pretty small. And the fonts in alot of my desktop programs are to small Like winamp 3.0 WAY to small and I don't think there is a way to adjust the fonts in winamp and one more thing while im here my pointer is so small I have a hard time seeing it. Like the font I am typing right now is REAL small. Do you guy,s now of any software out there that will help with thease problems? or any suggestions
 
The websites probably use style sheets so you can't resize the fonts. It's so the websites are displayed the way they are meant to be designed.
 
If you feel the text is too small for everything in Windows, you can change it across the board. Go to Display Properties -> Settings -> Advanced -> General (tab) -> Display -> DPI setting: 120dpi should make all text larger.
 
Pick one:
(a) set the resolution lower (unless it's an LCD)
(b) right click on empty part of desktop, choose properties > settings > advanced, General tab, Display box, font size pulldown. "Other" lets you choose a custom scaling like 115% or 133%.
