[E/B]

Would like to increase the size of the font for the OE Folders but
search has been fruitless. Have been able to modify some fonts using
the Control Panel/Display capability, but no changes occur in the
folder titles.
Suggestions appreciated.

Control Panel | Display | Appearance | Display. Increase the font size. Note
the this will affect fonts in other applications.

Thanks, but...
At Ctl Panel/Display/Appearance the only font size available is
'Normal'. At Appearance/Advanced font sizes may be changed for things
like the Title Bar and Message Box but the OE Folders fonts are not
affected.
BTW, I am set up for Classic display of the XP Home SP2.
Have I missed something?

HTML screen shot included.

Are you clicking on the Drop-Down arrow? You should have 3 choices of Font Size. Normal - Large - Extra Large.

Looks like you only have the windows drivers for your graphics card installed. Go to your graphics card web site, download and install the latest drivers. You then should be able to change the font sizes.

Screenshot from Bruce not helpful as I show only 1 choice for font
size - normal.
Graphics controller is Intel 82865G integrated on this Dell 4600
running XP Home SP2.
Drivers.com scan tells me the Graphics driver is OK. DriversGuide.com
shows the driver is dated Apr 2003 which is prior to purchase of
computer. Cannot find anything that tells me where to/how to/need to
update the driver.
Found that "ialmrnt5.dll" is listed to be the current driver. Non tech
capability puts me at a loss. More guidance will be appreciated.

Bruce didn't go far enough. You need to click the Advanced button, then select "Icon"
from the drop down menu. Once that is selected you can change the font and size for
icons. But this will affect icons on the desk top as well as some other lists in Windows.

Note you must click OK or APPLY on both the Advanced dialog and then the Display dialog
for the change to take effect.
