I don't think I use that, but I want to be sure. As I wrote to Lennart: > 1. Right-click the desktop. Choose Properties in the pop-up menu. > 2. Go to the Appearance tab. > 3. Click the Effects button. See whether the box described next is checked, and, if so, what the pull-down value is. Steps 4 & 5 are to set it to ClearType, which is what is shown in the screenshot I sent. > 4. Check the box "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts:" > 5. Pick a smoothing type with the pull-down list. I use ClearType.
