GMA X3100 - Text is odd (askew)

I am having an odd text issue, where most written things (IMs, group notices, inventory) do not show up right. The letters appear to not all be sitting on the same line...almost as if I child wrote it and couldn't quite line everything up. Every other letter goes up a smidge then back down, then up then back down.

This is my laptop with a GMA X3100. I had the same problem on a Laptop with a GMA 950. Other than that, the game runs just fine. My normal computer seems to have no problem with this (all running the most recent viewer), and a previous laptop with a non-intel card worked just fine. Has anyone else seen this or have any idea on how to rememdy it?

Nevermind, I fixed my own problem. Both laptops are very small, and it seems the UI just needs to be a certain size to not do odd things to the text. Changing the ratio of the UI to larger than 1.0 solved that problem very easily. :)
