Windows 7 Incorrect Scaling
I ran into a problem the second after installing Windows 7 a few months ago, but it only affected a few applications at the time, so I ignored it. Now an increasing number of applications behave the same way and it's annoying. The DPI settings seem to have an issue as can be seen below:
The same application should look like this:
The DPI is set to 100% (I tried changing it but it had no effect). I think perhaps the Regional / Language settings have something to do with it but I can't turn it off to English only.
Any ideas?

You could right-click on the Shortcut to the program and choose properties. Under the Compatibility tab, check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings." Click OK and start the program. Does this fix the problem for that program ?

This is a known bug that affects users with a high resolution display.
During installation, Windows 7 installs a larger font set which is 125% of the normal size. If you then choose go back to the standard font size (100%), Windows will keep some of the large fonts even though everything else is adjusted for standard fonts, causing some programs to display incorrectly as the DPI is too big for the window size.
- Open the Start menu and type
regeditand press Enter. - Locate the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows
NTCurrentVersionFonts
- Find the value
MS Sans Serif 8,10,12,14,18,24
- Change from
SSERIFF.FONtoSSERIFE.FON
- Find
MS Serif 8,10,12,14,18,24
- Change from
SERIFF.FONtoSERIFE.FON
- Find Courier
10,12,15
- Change from
COURF.FONtoCOURE.FON
Restart Windows and the problem should be resolved.

I am using Windows 7 32 Bit SP1, I have downloaded the application MemSet4.1, and it comes all fine on my screen. Changing the DPI settings doesn't have any impact on its display. Changing screen resolution also doesn't cut off the content, as you have shown in your screen. Even working with different languages doesn't have any impact on output. In all such cases, I get the correct result, so, in fact I don't see the issue on my machine.
I think, you should look for the Display driver installed in your machine, and if correct driver is not installed and default from windows is used, then you need to install the correct display driver.

The solution of @ian-atkin didn't fix it but helped me discover these font locations which led me to my issue/solution:
For some reason, a local application of mine filled in its own version of MS Sans Serif making the fonts look really tiny. Had to change it back its original values.

I am using Windows 7 32 Bit SP1, I have downloaded the application MemSet4.1, and it comes all fine on my screen. Changing the DPI settings doesn't have any impact on its display. Changing screen resolution also doesn't cut off the content, as you have shown in your screen. Even working with different languages doesn't have any impact on output. In all such cases, I get the correct result, so, in fact I don't see the issue on my machine.
I think, you should look for the Display driver installed in your machine, and if correct driver is not installed and default from windows is used, then you need to install the correct display driver.

The solution of @ian-atkin didn't fix it but helped me discover these font locations which led me to my issue/solution:
For some reason, a local application of mine filled in its own version of MS Sans Serif making the fonts look really tiny. Had to change it back its original values.

I'm not allowed to have two links in the description. But for example this is how the program normally should look: c.ask.nate.com/imgs/qrsi.tsp/8861288/11823503/0/1/A/01.jpg (dont mind the windows classic theme, it happens on all themes)

You could right-click on the Shortcut to the program and choose properties. Under the Compatibility tab, check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings." Click OK and start the program. Does this fix the problem for that program ?
