increase text size

I know how to increase overall text size via Display (settings >
advanced)... but how to I increase the text in whatever that bar is
called between the start button and the clock? Also, IE is set on
Largest Text but it's more like small (tiny). I can make my firefox
text as large as I need, it doesn't stick... but at least I can make
it larger.

I know there's a setting I'm not finding. Can anyone direct me?

Oh, btw.... for some reason, an ATI icon is now displayed on all of my
tabs under Advanced. I have no idea what happened, but this may be a
symptom of the problem. I'm virus free according to AVG.

TIA

Re: increase text size
The "ATI" is from your video card driver/software.

Re: increase text size
I understand that, but the tabs didn't display ATI before. That's why
I mentioned it. Could my video card be going out on me already? This
computer is 3 years old.

TIA
