    I have a strange problem, when certain windows open e.g. installer window, menu window etc... the text doesn't fit into the box making some buttons or options out of reach, without a slider/scroll bar I'm stumped, I have included a outlook express jpg example, any ideas appreciated :confused

    Can you position your cursor at the bottom right corner and drag the corner?

    No it seems to think the text is fitting in, almost like the font is to large, I cant accept software agreements (I agree tabs) because they are cropped out of the window with no scroll bar or resizing options.

    Hi

    Have you changed text size for your menus and windows? as it looks as if the text is too large, revert to the font size originally used.

    Or if you are using a different theme that the original Windows ones then revert back to the originals, although it does look like the original blue theme.

    Some info on how to change these options here
