Hi guys first post so please be gentle
For some strange reason the fonts on my windows 8.1 install have gone really strange
firefox font

IE font

see the diffrence?
in firefox the fonts really bad and unreadable
when i log into an old lappy the fonts are all fine on an old vista install with firefox
on Linux Mint the firefox fonts are fine
the fonts are fine in IE as u can see
https://i.imgur.com/MkBqHoi.jpg <-- firefox in youtube
https://i.imgur.com/H71t21N.jpg <--IE in youtube
https://i.imgur.com/yXuVAt5.jpg <-- fonts in main homescreen (which dont look normal either)
firefox used to look like IE did
i have tried to change the fonts in firefox
and in windows

i have tried the trick in this youtube video
too no avail
So whats the normal font settings i should need to get it all back to normal?
or should i just not worry as windows 10 will be out soon and im hoping this will fix this issue? or will this issue join me through into windows ten if i just do an upgrade and not a full clean install??
Thanks in advance guys

NOT RELATED TO FONTS..
i did a scannow and this error came up
C:\WINDOWS\system32>sfc /scannow
Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.
Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.
Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some
of them. Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For
example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. Note that logging is currently not
supported in offline servicing scenarios.

will this issue also be rectified with win 10?
