So I played with the setting as far as the DPI going from 125 to 135. 130 was the best, everything looked like the size I had before with old PC, however fonts weren't as clear.
I have adjusted back to 127, it's OK for now, I guess this is the best I can come up with; at least fonts are not extra small. Still bugs me how much space there is on the sides or bottoms of things, like my g-mail and blog.

I don't know if there is any other solution, if there is let me know. Thank you so much for all who has responded to my questions.

Katia I think we've got about all the mileage out of it that we're going to get. Just set it the way it works best for you, I don't know of any other options unless someone else does.

In the Firefox browser you can increase the font size by pressing: "Ctrl and + sign" at the same time. To reduce again back to original do "Ctrl and - sign"

You can press Ctrl + multiple times to further increase the font size.

Maybe this will help.

Leave your monitor at it's native resolution though. It will work better for you that way.
