I got my son setup on his computer but when I started to help him get going I found it hard to read the menus. Not sure what is happening, has anybody else had this issue?

Thanks!

Thanks for the responses. I ended up changing setting with Win 7 and it seemed to make the changes in game and it looks good now :( Time for family drops to reap havoc! lol

New text is way too small on hi-resolution displays. I have to actually squint to make out the mech details.

Old UI image for comparison:

This is a known issue with UI2.0. Reported, even including direct questions tweeted at Russ. Completely glossed over in official communication so far. Welcome to MWO.

What I did to my sons computer was change his theme from the new win 7 theme to the old windows classic theme. And turned it back to double check if that was indeed the issue and confirmed it was. So going back to windows classic theme made the changes in MWO.

Win 7 home 32 bit
AMD APU 5350
Radeon HD 7790
