Screen Resolution

I usually have my screen resolution set to 600X800, but when I click on "START" and "ALL PROGRAMS" I can't see them all. I switched my screen resolution to 1024X768. I can see all my programs, but now everything is tiny. Is there any way to make things bigger using this screen resolution, or do I have to use the 600X800?

Thanks

Right click on your desktop. Go to Properties/Settings/Advanced and change your DPI from 96 to 120. Or to just change font size right click/Properties/Appearance and change font size from Normal to Large or Extra Large.
