Ok, try this... (no promises)

Set the resolution to 1280x1024, then change the DPI to the "Large" setting (i think it is 120 dpi).

Failing that try 1024x768 with "Large" 120 dpi

To change DPI click here...

FYI, have just tried 800x600 96DPI on a 17in panel i have here and compared it to 1280x1024 120DPI on the same panel and they are virtually the same sized text, with the later being have the better picture.

Ok, go back to the screen where you change the DPI and select the normal setting again. As you cannot see the OK button, hit Return on the keyboard instead - this will do the same thing.

What you should have done was to set the screen resolution to 1280x1024 FIRST then changed the DPI setting AFTERWARDS.
