Boxes too small to read on Autocad 2015 HOMEWORK DUE TOMORROW

I just bought a new Lenovo Ultrabook 64 bit with an i7 and 8 gb of ram for engineering.  It has Windows 8.1 on it and it has all stock defaults.  The first program I installed was Autocad and for some reason everything is either too small or too big.  I have no idea why but it is important for me to get this fixed because I have homework due tomorrow.  I have attached screenshots.

AutoCAD doesn't work well with ultra-high-res displays: is that what you have?

it has a "QHD" display.  Is there anything I can do to make it work?

Autocad is not ready for QHD yet.  An update will come out at some point when the QHD resolution becomes more common.

 

The only thing I can suggest now is to go Control Panel > Display and set your resolution to 1920x1080.

Thank you for your observations on the appearance of AutoCAD on high resolution displays. The development team is looking for comments about your experience with setting the Windows display scale to 150% or more, to accommodate newer monitors. Please take this quick survey (5 minutes), if you have tried to use AutoCAD this way.


Thanks in advance for your feedback!
