Font size in messaging area of 2010 Outlook

See attached - The font size is larger in dpsmithers99 than dpsmithers98.  I just re-installed Outlook 2010 and the fonts look smaller that I remember.  How can I increase the font size?  Thanks -

It looks like your screen resolution changed.  I would change that to a smaller resolution first.
Same resolution -

Tim is correct - It does look like your resolution has changed. Everything else like your taskbar and clock look bigger as well.
Both computers are set at 1920 X 1080
Under Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Display there should be an option to increase the DPI of text displayed on the screen. Make sure it is set to 100% and not englarged to 125% or even 150%.
