    If it is software and you are running windows then on your desktop right click, select properties and then select the 'Settings' tab - you can adjust it in there.

    However also make sure that your monitor is correctly configurred through its OSD.

    In Firefox, either hold down control and scroll with the middle mouse button

    OR

    Go to View - Text Size - Increase

    In IE

    Go to View - Text Size
