Hi there, I'm new here and about a week ago I installed Windows 7 64-bit, I was using the 32-bit for years, and I had a problem with Photoshop freezing up when I click on the font tool, well I sence got this problem fixed, now my problem is that some, not all, of my Open/Save as dialogs are too big / can't get back to normal size. I tried using the " Make it easer to read on your screen " thing in display settings, that is set to " smaller 100% (default) ", I did change that to "Medium (125%) for a minute and put it back to " smaller 100% (default) " then the " Set custom text size (DPI)" and that's at 100%, I didn't touch that one. Screenshots of what I'm talking about are below.

I really need to get this fixed... If anyone can please help me out here, it would be greatly appreciated!

I've never seen that issue before. I would right-click on the desktop > Personalize & choose the non-aero Windows classic theme. If that doesn't fix it then I would try a reinstall right overtop the existing installation (not reformat the HD first). If it still persists the a full reinstall is probably the only option
