Go to - personalize windows colour appearance - then click on advanced settings and in the drop down menu select icons and to the right change font and boldness.

you can go through control panel or right click on desktop.

hope that makes sense.

Have a search for, or look in your Fonts folder to make sure that you still have the micross.ttf or Microsoft Sans Serif (common name) font installed (not to be confused with MS Sans Serif). It's one of the core system fonts M$ uses for the pseudo/virtual MS Shell Dlg font.
