Why is the text on my browser so tiny?

I just downloaded Mozilla Firefox onto a Windows 8 computer, but for some reason the text in the browser (NOT the actual webpage text) (I mean the menu bar, titles of tabs) is VERY tiny. I was wondering if there was any possible way to make it bigger? I hope you understand what I'm describing. Thanks.

You can right-click a pref on the about:config page and choose Reset (the prefs shows as an empty string value).
The next time you start Firefox this pref will be removed.

Try to create a new Boolean pref on the about:config page via the right-click context menu with the name layout.paint_rects_separately and set the value to true and leave hardware acceleration enabled.

See comment 414 in bug 812695:

That way you still have the benefit from hardware acceleration, but may not suffer from rendering issues.

I created it, but I accidentally created one that has the name "paint_rects" WITHOUT the "layout" or "separately". Is there a way to delete this one?

Actually, I figured out it was because of the computer settings- NOT anything to do with Mozilla. So, I was wondering how I can remove the "paint_rects" things I created? Thanks.

Ok. Thanks. It's fixed now.
