There are two ways to change the size of elements in windows 7.

The first way is to change the screen resolution. To do this, right click on a blank space on your desktop and click screen resolution. Then drag the slider up or down according to your needs.

The second way is to actually change the element size. This doesn't affect the screen resolution so you can still enjoy HD videos etc. This is probably the best way as it doesn't affect any other user on your computer. To do this type 'make items' into the start menu and press enter. Then on the window that comes up click on the size of text you want. After you've done this you have to log off and log back on to see the effect.
