You can turn off Aero and stop the Desktop Window Manager Session Manager and you'll approach the XP window manager and display.

I don't get what you mean by you'll approach xp window manager and display
turning off aero and dekstop manger session did not work.
But given how different the display manager is, that's why I shared how I was able to revert to something closer to XP's and maybe farther back to classic windows displays.
Another idea is to try making the font display smaller or larger. Old apps can have trouble if you change that.
Be sure to ask the authors of the apps for updates. They often have the changes done since Vista would have this issue too.
